Current Cost Breakdown of TESU

[k-k-k-katy]

I think I have the costs figured out for the credits I would like to bring into TESU, but not sure about all the different fees, etc. FOR TESU (application, transfer credits, the waiver fee, 2 required courses, graduation, whatever else???) - could someone point me in the right direction/link or post the breakdown for me, please?  My plan is to transfer in 114 credits and just take the cornerstone and capstone for a BSBA - marketing degree.  Enjoyed a huge sigh of relief after figuring out the degree plan but reality is I need to start budgeting for the next steps.  Thank you, thank you!

The flat-rate tuition at TESU is $4639.  If you take 16 credits at TESU, you avoid having to pay the $3192 residency waiver fee which saves you a net of $1667. (Or more if you count study.com savings by taking classes at TESU)

The downside is that it may be a lot of work during that 3 months.  (Up to 20hrs per week total)

If your household makes under $60,000 per year, you should consider applying for the Pell Grant to save more.

One option is to do FT Flat-Rate tuition for a term, and then do the cornerstone, a 1cr course, and the capstone online courses in that term, and do 3 courses as e-Pack's (which are similar to TECEP exams - a single exam is 100% of your grade, and it's Pass/Fail, so no hit to your GPA).  https://www2.tesu.edu/listallc.php?type=...1571680140.  Study for your exams prior to the term, then take them right at the beginning so they don't interfere with your 3 regular courses.

This is probably the easiest way to get 16cr in a single term at TESU - remember, TESU terms are 12weeks, which are similar to quarter-system courses, and normally you only take 3-4 courses in a quarter vs. 5 courses in a semester - to finish in 4 years either way).

Thank you for posting about this option, it really does look interesting.  A little intimidating, but interesting :-).  In my original plan I wasn't even going to try to take the cornerstone at the same time as the capstone but I know a lot of people really just do it.  I imagine motivation and desire to finish ramps up as the end comes in sight.
