"1. When should I apply or sign up at TESU. I would need to lock in this catalog by taking a TECEP every 6 months or a year to keep my catalog rolling?"
From experience they usually change the catalog in July. So anytime before July should lock you into 2016's catalog.
"2. Do I still need 8 TECEPs to meet the residency requirement when I take the Penn Foster Strategic Business Management as my capstone, or only 7 TECEPs?"
Yes you will still need eight. You need 24 credits from TESU to meet the residency requirement.
"3. Little confused on the cost of tuition as I would be taking 8 TECEPs. Being out of state I would pick the Per Credit Tuition plan for 3 credits?"
Application Fee $75
Graduation Fee $312
Full 8 TECEP Cost $888
Technology Fee $131
Total Cost to TESU should be = $1406
I am not 100% sure how your out of state status will affect the cost of TECEPs, if it affects it at all.
