CFP® + ChFC® + TESU Acceptance Email

[Rf10]

Update for the board.

I just received word that my FINRA Licenses (Series 7 & 65) were evaluated for credit.  I am so glad I did.  Apparently they re-evaluated these credits with my ChFC course work.  I am now completely finished the 18 credits needed in Finance. :  I almost can't believe it!  With a 3.632 GPA!  

As you know the evaluation tool doesn't really cut and paste well, so I listed below how they completed it, plus a screen shot pasted to a word document for verification.

If anyone out there is going for a Finance Degree and has the FINRA Licenses and CFP and or ChFC coursework done, you are closer than you think!

Have a great weekend!

How long after passing a FINRA Exam, specifically the Series 65, is a "transcript" or the equivalent available?  What is the process to get that info to TESU?

Thanks for the help.

I believe it is available as soon as you can see it at brokercheck.finra.org.
Here is the information from TESU's site.  I just filled out the form and faxed it in. A person from FINRA called to tell me that I could get this myself and I explained that it had to come from them.  He said "no problem, I will put it int he mail today."

How do I get started?

• Submit documentation of successful completion
  Students should download and complete the Letter to Request a FINRA Score Report found on the Web CRD/IARD Snapshot Request Form at http://www.finra.org/file/web-crdiard-sn...quest-form. When completing the request, please indicate that you would like your Snapshot mailed directly to Thomas Edison State University, Office of the Registrar, 111 West State Street, Trenton, NJ 08608. Submit completed and signed request forms to FINRA. FINRA will then mail a copy of your Snapshot to the University.
