I made the leap! JUST APPLIED AT TESC!!!

You need to send all your transcripts to TESC. ASAP they can not do your evaluation without the transcripts. You only did steps 1 & 2 on this page Thomas Edison State College | Apply for an Undergraduate Degree or Certificate Program You need to do the nesxt steps.

Submit Your Transcripts to:
Office of the Registrar
Thomas Edison State College
101 W. State St.
Trenton, NJ 08608-1176
It can take 2-3 weeks for a transcript to get to TESC and another 4-6 weeks to get an evaluation. You need to figure out what credits you still need for your degree and start testing now.

To be in the December2011 graduating class you need to have completed (or at least be in process of completing all coursework and credits) and submit your application for graduation to TESC by Oct.1, 2011

If you want to meet that deadline you have a lot of work to plan and do in less than 6 months. It is doable, but you need to start NOW not wait for your TESC eval.

Awesome! I'm on it. I'm going to work HARD!!! How can I start now without waiting for TESC eval? I'm assuming by clepping out of the handful of general credits that I have left right? I may have to pay out of pocket for a few of them, but if it means being able to graduate December 2011, I'm gonna bite the bullet. I still pray I qualify for financial aid because money is just so tight for me and I have been in tears over completing my Bachelors for the longest.

Do you think it would serve me well to post a thread where I list all my potential transfer credits so that big 3ers can weigh in and give me tips? I've found that the people on this forum seem to be exceptionally knowledgeable and bright. I'd assume you would need to be in order to teach yourself through your Bachelors degree as that's a challenge in itself! Thanks for giving me hope.

And Linda...I also noticed that you graduated with the degree I am interested in! Would love to talk more about it later and ask you for more specific opinions on which classes I should get out of the way first, etc. and whether or not you're finding the transition to Masters programs easy.
