TESU - need 1 more UL elective for BA Communication. What are my test-out options?
#1
Hello,

I am almost done with a BA in Communication from Thomas Edison State University and need one more upper level communication elective to graduate. The Capstone drained me and I am only interested in testing-out. The adviser is saying that my only options are the following two TECEPs:
[URL="http://www2.tesu.edu/tecep.php?CourseCode=MAN-373"]
MAN-373-TE Managerial Communications[/URL] (which I am told is fairly new, and seems so due to the lack of information about this test on a general online search)
or
MAR-321-TE Marketing Communications

My preference is to take a DSST or CLEP, since I heard TECEPs are harder and also the availability of study material. Seems like TECEPs usually require a reading of the text book(s).

Am I missing any other test-out options?

There are a bunch of electives listed on the Communications degree page but doesn't quite specify the exact courses.

Much appreciate any input!


***Here's the back story:

I just finished my Capstone and thought I was all done and was about to apply for graduation in June. My academic evaluation stated all requirements were met. Even still, I asked academic advising one last time to verify that I have met all the requirements for graduation since I didn't want to waste the application fee in case there was some issue. Low and behold, they noticed that the evaluation was wrong and I needed one more UL course in Communication. So now I am looking for a fast way to meet this requirement and graduate already!

I'm wondering if I had just applied for graduation, if this issue would have even been found since the original evaluation said I met all the requirement. Or is there a final in-depth evaluation that would have caught it anyways...In any case, below are the screen grabs from the original eval versus the newly update:
