Thomas Edison State College administers the Thomas Edison College
Examination Program (TECEP), which permits students enrolled at TESC and
elsewhere to earn college credit by examination. Although TECEP examinations
are widely accepted, you should check with your own college or university
before registering for TECEP exams to verify that credits earned through
TECEP can be transfered.
For further information on test content or descriptions, you may
e-mail TESC or call (609) 984-1140. Below is an unofficial listing of the
available TECEP exams along with the recommended readings to prepare for each test.
You may also order the current TECEP Test Description Book (US $20) by calling (609) 984-4099.
