  Canada to US (TESU)
Posted by: Pi-kachu - 09-22-2025, 07:10 PM - Forum: Degree Planning Advice - Replies (6)

Your Location: canada 
Your Age: 30
What kind of degree do you want?: BA math/CS and BS data science and analytics
Current Regional Accredited Credits: 40 credits from a 4 year university in canada (applied mathematics) 15 credits from community college in Massachusetts US. HS diploma from Massachusetts as well.
Current ACE, CLEP, or NCCRS Credits: none, planning to take the maximum I can 
Any certifications or military experience?: none
Budget: preferably 1 term at TESU @ max credits (15 cr) so I don't have to pay the residency fee
Commitments: none
Dedicated time to study: full time
Timeline: 6 months

I just applied to TESU and will send them both my transcripts once accepted, my main goal is to graduate within 1 term so I dont have to pay for another, is that possible with the degree I chose? I saw many double degree vs double major and from what I understood, its possible to get two degrees that both have double majors. Plus two associates that each have double majors as well. Is that something possible in 1 term or they will not allow it.
I will make a spreadsheet and list all the ACE credits that will be accepted once I get my transcripts evaluated. Will they accept Canadian transcripts or I need to send them to WES?

  Modern States Intro Sociology for Voucher?
Posted by: JayKosmos - 09-22-2025, 04:23 PM - Forum: CLEP, DSST, and TECEP Exam Discussion. Also Modern States and InstantCert. - Replies (2)

I just registered and all I can find for Intro Sociology is the legacy course.
I just wanted to go through them for the voucher at the end.
Is there a replacement course that offers the voucher for that test?

I started all this over a decade ago but I see a lot has changed since then. RIP Fema Sad

They're asking me for a referral at Walden so if you graduated from Walden within the past five years hit me up PM Me.

If you graduated from walden and want to pm me your name and email address I will see if I can use that to get a little money knocked off my fees lol. Thanks!!

  BA CS +BS CIS +Possibility of an associate?
Posted by: Nish - 09-22-2025, 12:14 PM - Forum: TESU - Thomas Edison State University Discussion - Replies (13)

Hello everyone, I’m planning to complete both a BA in CS and a BS in CIS at TESU. From what I’ve read, it’s possible to graduate with both simultaneously. My question is: can I also add an associate degree to this mix? For example, if I take a few extra courses (like Precalculus, Linear Algebra, and Statistics), could I also earn an Associate in Math along with the BA in CS and BS in CIS? In other words, is it possible to graduate with all three degrees at the same time? Thank you in advance! Smile

  • Introduction to Computer Science
  • Physics with Lab

  Anyone had any specific information on what classes I should take on Sophia
Posted by: Exemys - 09-22-2025, 04:41 AM - Forum: Saylor.org, Straighterline, Study.com, Sophia.Org, Coursera Discussion - Replies (1)

Hey everyone! I’m currently enrolled at UMPI for a history focused degree and I currently am sitting at about 21 credits. I was wondering if anyone had any specific information on what classes I should take on Sophia. And if it’s possible to transfer these credits over! Thanks for your time.

  TESU - Easy RA Credits
Posted by: Paperplanes - 09-21-2025, 07:28 PM - Forum: TESU - Thomas Edison State University Discussion - Replies (3)

I'm back!! Thanks for all the help and guidance on this forum, its very helpful. 

I saw a post where someone is looking to complete a Associate at TESU while doing the Bachelor in the future. I am thinking of doing a similar thing. I don't have RA credits so I would need 15 RA credits for the Associate and 30 for the bachelors. 

I'm looking for guidance on how to obtain these. I've been looking at TECEPs, TEL, and UMPI. My game plan was to get all the harder classes in and complete the LL or somewhat easier classes at TESU. (Does that make sense?). For better understanding here's the remaining courses I need. I might be missing one. 

English Composition I
English Composition II

COM-2090 Public Speaking
SOC-1010: Introduction to Sociology

Introduction to Psychology 
SOS-110 Information Literacy
BUS-421 Business Administration Capstone

PHI-130 Introduction to Critical Reasoning - Transfer but I should take this for RA
GOG-230 World Geography - Maybe I could take this.


If anyone knows of a way to get RA credits fast, I am open to suggestions. Since most of these could also be completed at Sophia. Or should I stick to my original plan and complete these classes at TESU

  Modern States + Uopeople = Least expensive RA Bachelor's??
Posted by: Maniac Craniac - 09-21-2025, 01:50 PM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - Replies (10)

I'm not too familiar with either entity, beyond the gist of what they offer. Is it possible to get a bachelor's degree with nothing more than:

1) 90 credits of free CLEP through Modern States vouchers.

2) All remaining credits from Uopeople?

If so, one could complete an RA bachelor's degree for $1,600. That would be, as far as I am aware, the current least expensive RA bachelor's.

Am I correct?

  Bachelor of Arts in Liberal Studies
Posted by: education_man - 09-21-2025, 12:02 PM - Forum: TESU - Thomas Edison State University Discussion - Replies (4)

Hi, I'm newer here. I was told that I can find a transcript or degree plan with all the Sophia learning and study.com courses that will be accepted into TESU's BA liberal studies program. Does anyone have that? I plan on transferring in as many ace credits as possible and then completing the capstone to graduate. The residency requirement is waived because of my employer. Any assistance will be greatly appreciated
