TESC's undergraduate program was more rigorous than traditional colleges and universities. The examinations were challenging; having done well on them has given me a strong sense of achievement As well, the coursework was equally challenging. Those who do well at TESC can be justly proud of their accomplishments.

TESC was an amazing school for my undergraduate work in psychology. I found it to be more rigorous and scholarly than other brick and mortar institutions I had attended. I have since achieved my MS in Psych. and now I'm in my Clinical PhD program and I'm grateful for the foundational studies that were provided to me at TESC. I'm proud of my work there!

The program itself is sound; the materials are great. However, the quality and responsiveness of the mentors vary. There is no apparent obligation for the mentors to be timely or accountable. Some take far too long to grade while others do not make their criteria for grading evident before assignments are due or even after they are done and graded. Some mentors are active in discussion while others are totally absent. Some are too active. The program lacks adequate oversight with respect to mentors.
