When to send transcripts from Sophia or SDC to TESU

[AZDan]

When you're in TESU OSS, you can check your "My Profile".  It'll show your Student Status and Start Date.  It'll also indicate if you're active or inactive or if you are part of a Corporate Choice Enrollment.  For enrollment purposes, I would pay $50 for the Medical Terminology TECEP and don't bother with the exam, skip it along with the PLA for the Pilot License, it'll cost more for the PLA course and take more energy/time from you.

Under the student status it states:
OSAPP Non-NJ Applicant

Under start date:
12/06/19

Reading down further under catalog:
2017-2018

So this looks like I am not active. Therefore, so I have this straight, I should sign up for the Medical Terminology TECEP and then determine if I want to actually take the exam. I will become active and if I do miss the exam, it won't show up on my transcripts but at least I will not be active. Right?
