Due to work and life getting in the way, I was unable to complete my BS degree at Thomas Edison State University and I was dis-enrolled from my program for years and now I'd like to pick back up where I left off.
From my understanding, the first step is to apply as a new student at Apply Now at Thomas Edison State University.
1. I went to the "Apply Now" page" and I tried logging in with my old account, but it says "Your account has been locked. Please contact the system administrator." Should I create a new account to re-enroll or should I wait and contact some "system administrator"? Although my application account doesn't work, I'm still able to login to my old student account.
2. Anyone here have a contact whom I can specifically e-mail in regards to re-enrolling at TESC?
Update: E-mailed Bursar's Office, will update this thread once they respond

If you've had any transcripts evaluated you will probably want them to open your old account for reapplication.
I think I contacted the admissions office about that.

Already sent an e-mail out to the Bursar's office before seeing your post, because I did a search here and saw multiple people suggesting other people in a similar situation to e-mail there. Thanks for your help anyway!

Great! I don't know if this will be worth it to you to try or not, but you can apply for a waiver for that $75 reapplication fee. They offer it for special/extenuating circumstances.

Back in 2010 I was a student at TESC completed a couple of classes and stopped. A year and a half later I just reapplied as a new student and paid the fee. After I was excepted I was given the same student id and my evaluation was done quick because they had all my transcripts already. I didn't bring any new credits in. Only thing that changed was my catalog and that was when the capstone was added.

If you're referring to the Adult Comeback program mentioned at http://www.degreeforum.net/excelsior-tho...aiver.html, I don't qualify since I'm not a New Jersey resident. Still checked on TESC's website for more on this and it doesn't mention anything about this program, so it appears they discontinued it. :confused:

I'm confused. I sent an e-mail to the Bursar's office asking for re-enrollment under my same account and this is what I got back:

My current status is showing up as OSAPP Non-NJ Applicant. I just e-mailed Bursar and was told I'm currently on Applicant status. When I register for a course, my status will change to enrolled, ten days into the term on the Per Credit Tuition plan. It looks like I won't get charged any fees, thought I'd have to end up paying for more than just courses, but I guess not.

The only fee they could possibly have charged would have been the $75 application fee, but apparently re-enrolling doesn't even require that. Excellent!

Ok, I was confused as I was expecting a charge for not being enrolled for years now (thankfully not, so that's awesome!).
Disappointed to find out that it looks like I have to pay a $2,000 Residency Waiver somewhere down the road due to transferring in most of my courses and not doing 24 credits at TESU—that's not how they did it back when I enrolled years ago, so I'm going to e-mail and see if that requirement would apply to me.
