DSH2007 Wrote:All of my general ed requirements are met and I am 18 credits away from completion of a BA in English. That's four correspondence courses (all creative writing related--one in progress), plus two TESC classes (non-western lit and capstone) left. I've applied to TESC, but was not intending to enroll until finished with the correspondence courses, to ensure I would not be paying a second enrollment fee.
So this changes things. I've been taking only one course at a time and allowing 12 weeks each to complete. Looks like I need to up my game plan and enroll by 7/13 and finish by 7/14 or meet the new requirements. It's a little early to know just how many additional courses that will be--by my count it's at least four or five more.
I've been a member of this forum since (*looks at user name*) 2007 and have been inspired by the many success stories posted here (you guys rock, by the way). Many of you have completed your degrees in an amazing amount of time; for an old slow-poke like me (my avatar is my POTUS), it's taking quite a bit longer.
New goal: Enroll by 7/13, finish by 7/14. Time to double up on courses.
I can do this!
Make sure you enroll before July, doing so in July will be on the new system. Their payment system isn't instant either so you might want to enroll about a week prior, maybe go for June 20th to be sure. Time may end up being a great motivator to finish for you, I wish you luck on finishing your degree.
My completed "non-traditional" credits include 27 credits from CLEP, 30 credits from DSST, 6 credits from ALEKS, 19 credits from FEMA courses including PDS, 3 credits from NFA courses, 10 credits from ACE Workplace Training, 3 credits from a TESC TECEP exam, and 3 credits from a TESC PLA course.
