computer science degree for an affordable price

The generic plan does have plenty of Sophia courses but it allows you to pick which ones to use and which ones to avoid in favor of RA credit. For instance, the English Comp TECEPs are generally quicker and easier than the Sophia courses.

Ok, I understand. Thank you for taking the time to reply to my questions.
Anyway, I'm going to start taking these courses. I just wanted ask one more thing, which is: When do I apply to TESU? only after I've finished the courses? Also: What are their criteria for accepting or not accepting students? I'm a foreigner, I did high school in Brazil. Do my grades have to be a certain level or something? I've got a certificate that attests I'm proficient in English, but that's about all.
I'm kinda scared to do all this work and in the end not be accepted into TESU.

If this information is already in other threads, I apologize in advance.
