A word of caution if using Post 9/11 GI Bill
#10
Outis Wrote:Thanks for the response. I just want to clarify - is the enrollment fee waived or charged to the VA?

My situation in the original post no longer applies. The VA now REQUIRES you to take the enrolled option for which there is NO ENROLLMENT fee, but you have to get the 24 credits. The reason is to save costs, but its quite possible that this can cause the VA in certain cases to actually pay MORE in ed costs. If the student was going to use CLEP and other non traditional sources, the 1800 enrollment fee plus the cost of one class. Now, the student is forced to take courses at TESC and if the student elects to take only online courses, it would cost the VA thousands.
CLEPS Passed: 10 DSST Passed: 11 TECEPS: 1

PrLoko-isms
Don't waste time by trying to save time. The only sure way to complete your degree is to knock out credits quickly and efficiently.

Don't let easiness bite you in the rear. Know your endgame (where you want to be) and plan backward from there. Your education is a means to an end.

Be honest professionally, socially and academically. There are people (especially little ones) who look up to you and they're going by your example.

Be proud. Whether you're an Engineer or Fast Food worker, there is honor and dignity in hard work.

Picking on people weaker than you only proves that you are a weak person.
