    Quick question about TESC. I just finished my English Comp w/Essay and Analyzing and Interpreting Literature today. I also plan to have my Social Sciences and History taken in 2 weeks. Based on this information do you think (in your honest opinion) that I have sufficient time to meet this deadline?

    I know the essay has to be graded then sent to TESC but do they actually just need to receive it by then or do they actually have to process it as well?

    Also once I finish this last CLEP is it possible to start on the remainder of a bachelor's program (like TESC or Bellevue) before I actually have the degree? The reason I ask is because the time between the middle of February (the time I finish my last CLEp) and the time I receive my degree (June 2009) is time I could be using to take courses. I hope this is a possibility. Thanks again guys for the guidance and encouragement. Oh and BTW I scored a 60 on the A&IL CLEP. It was a lot tougher than I thought it would be. :D

    The documents must be received by TESC by April 1 but they process at their leisure. You should be okay if all transcripts are received by the school by the deadline; if you are paranoid request the transcripts be sent with "signature required" or "delivery confirmation".

    I assume you mean between the time you file to graduate with an AA/AS and the time TESC officially confers the degree. In this case you can start towards the BA/BS immediately after filing for graduation. Actually, you can be enrolled concurrently in both an AA/AS and BA/BS at TESC. I think there is a 1 or 2 month graduation period gap required between degree conferals, but don't quote me on that point.

    Thanks. I was getting worried about the English Comp score getting there in time. As far as the last question I am referring to starting another program before I finish this degree. I've never done this before so if I'm understanding correctly once I apply for graduation I can then get started on another program? If so should I apply for graduation as soon as I finish this last CLEP? With this last one I will have the hours for my degree requirement. I am keeping my options open but I need to fond a place that accepts an AAS for full transfer to TESC and Bellevue are both on my list. Thanks...:)
