You'll have to go with EC ANYWAY!! TCN is NOT a college; they are a middleman. You have to pay fees to EC as well, ON TOP of what you pay to TCN! I'd cancel that contract. Go to eBay and search on "TCN" and see all the wonderful TCN materials you can buy without signing a contract, and for hundreds less. The TCN materials aren't bad, but they are NOT required. I didn't use them.
And it does NOT take that long to get accepted to EC! Sheesh, the fibbing from those TCN people! LOL
This is just my opinion, of course. YMMV. :)
Amazon also has TCN. More than ebay...a little more expensive but more to choose from. I got a sociology one off ebay for $0.99 plus $5.00 shipping. And let me just say...BOOOOORRRRRIIINNNGGG. It might help me pass..but DANG. It's just sheet after sheet of black and white paper. I would think I would need a textbook anyway. (I got one...also ebay...also super cheap)
THANKS EVERYONE!. Hey, gotta tell ya that the guy I dealt with to cancel was . He was really nice & wished me luck. So, I contacted EC & they said they already have my application & was processed last year, so go ahead & get started on my general courses. Yipee! Now I have to give the book back to the rep. inorder to get my $500.00 back. Not looking forward to that. Anyway, things have changed alot in 3 yrs. since I've on this site. Looking forward to getting to know everyone.
Thanks again for the support.:heartbeat

I used to be a member of this site years ago when I attended LPN school & prior. Well, after much pressure, I decided to go for my RN. I WILL NOT go back to traditional school, only b/c I do not want to put up with the BS that went with it. So, yesterday, I signed up with TCN & after reading your threads, I feel I made a grave error. My contract states I have 3 business days to cancel. The reason I went with them is b/c I was told that it would take 4 months to get my EC stuff & even be considered a student. The price doesn't bother me of TCN, if I read & study their material, I will pass. Again, I am starting to panic. I like have text books, but I want to start college ASAP, I am tired of waiting. Any suggestions? Should I stay with TCN or go w/EC?
Thanks
