ACTFL CREDITS to TESU - Seagull - 01-28-2021

Will the exam score be sent directly from LTI? There is a $20 fee but it goes directly to TESU.

TESU wants to know from me how LTI will send them, and I am writing to the registrar about it, but it would be nice if they knew how they accept them.

Has anyone experienced success lately sending ACTFL scores to TESU? Especially in 2021. 
I just need the right way to send those credits so they cannot say they were sent in too late.

Deadline for alternate credits is March 1st.

I submitted them in 6/20. I had to send the ACE transcripts AND the ACTFL. Check the badges. The problem with ACE recommendation is that they do not specify the language. They need to know the specific languages and the ACE transcript just gave a credit. I don't know what the acclaim badges look like. ACTFL look a LONG time to get the transcripts out, I want to say three weeks. I almost ordered a second set. They gave me full credits for everything.

I just sent it directly from Acclaim a few weeks ago. I didn't hear anything back but it showed up on my Academic Evaluation a couple of days ago. All credits added without having to jump through the hoops from the last time I sent to them. Last time I had to get a print out notarized and then send it to TESU.

Can you tell us what exams you took, your scoring, and what TESU gave you for everything?


RE: ACTFL CREDITS to TESU - utility - 01-28-2021

Spanish writing, reading, speaking.  The speaking one I did the automated test because I didn't want to wait 2 weeks for the appointment.  The Acclaim badges that I got say the language (images attached).  This might be why they added without having to get anything sent from LTI or getting a notarized letter.

Speaking - Advanced Mid - 6 LL + 3 UL
Writing - Advanced Low - 6 LL + 2 UL
Reading - Advanded Low/Mid - 3 LL

They gave me a total of 20 credits (5 upper level).  Images attached on where they went.

Completely filled Knowledge of Human Cultures - 12 credits
GE Electives - 3 credits
Upper Level - 5 credits

I had my electives filled prior to getting these credits, now it's showing 5 credits needed.  I guess I'll have to message them to see if they can move some of my other credits around.  I have 154 credits total right now and still missing 12 credits to finish the BALS.  If everything goes where it's supposed to go and they accept the TEEX student history that was mailed to them, all I should have left is the capstone.

If they don't accept everything as-is I might extend my time to finish and go BSBA CIS which is what I originally wanted before their new credit transfer policy. I should have the Associates Computer Science completed once they add my final Study.com course.

So it is $20 to send them to acclaim and then free from acclaim to TESU?

No to Acclaim it's free.  You have to email them.  customercare@languagetesting.com seems to be the best email.

Awesome, thanks for that info.  I think I figured out the mapping:

OPIc (Adv/Mid)
SPA-110: Conversation & Composition I (3cr)
SPA-111: Conversation & Composition II (3cr)
SPA-310: Advanced Conversation & Composition I (3cr)

WPT (Adv/Low)
SPA-132: Composition & Stylistics I (3cr)
SPA-133: Composition & Stylistics II (3cr)
SPA-335: Advanced Composition & Stylistics I (2cr)

RPT (Adv Low/Mid)
SPA-130: Grammar & Composition I


RE: ACTFL CREDITS to TESU - Seagull - 01-28-2021

So Spanish superior level translates in SPA-310 and SPA-311?

AND SPA-335 and SPA-336 for the WPT?
