TESU Transfer Policy - Explained

[jch]

Now I'm confused. seems like it would be up to TESU same as ECE exams or TEL exams are RA but they can still decide to evaluate and accept. In the past MANY posters used the old CSU exams for credit before they changed their policy to require attendance.

What I am getting now is that we can enroll as non degree student and DO NOT need to take a $1000 plus course to be eligible for self study exams. Hope I am right because quite a few of their exams starting to look really good. Any body who knows for sure?

Operative word is "guaranteed transfer".

CSU says : Currently, self-study assessment exam credit is not approved for Colorado gtPathway guaranteed transfer because self-study assessments are not considered resident credit. 

That Colorado gtPathway thing is entirely unrelated to transferring these assessment credits to TESU. They are just telling you the same thing that applies to nearly every credit by exam program out there, which is that testing credits do not count toward credit residency. That's all. The gtPathway program is only for transfers within some Colorado schools, and will not apply to TESU in any case.  

I have some ideas on how to avoid taking any actual classes. Probably the easiest way will be to only communicate with them enough to be admitted, then ignore any actual enrollment solicitations. I suspect that their system will work somewhat like the exam programs at Strayer, where anyone who has established an academic record can simply sign up for and take exams. I'd also recommend timing your admission to occur shortly after the start of a term, so that you can delay enrollment to the next term. Even if they make you sign up for classes in that upcoming term, just drop them after taking the desired exams.
