Advisory regarding Southern California wildfires

On behalf of everyone at Thomas Edison State University, we hope that students affected by the wildfires in Southern California remain safe. The University is offering accommodations to students affected by the wildfires:

  • Students who are directly impacted by the fires and who are currently registered in courses for the November 2024, December 2024 and January 2025 terms have the option of receiving a free eight-week course extension without mentor approval; or, a 100% tuition credit for their course(s) to a future term. Affected students should submit a Request for Course Extension Form or a Request for Course Withdrawal Form indicating “Southern California wildfires” as the reason for the request. Please note that TECEP exams in these terms cannot be extended, nor credited for tuition after the exam has been taken.
  • Impacted students who are currently on a course extension for the September 2024 and October 2024 terms can request a second eight-week extension on their current term at no additional cost.

Request an Accommodation: Students affected by the wildfire and evacuations who need an accommodation should contact the Office of the Registrar by email at registration@tesu.edu or by phone at 609-777-5680. Accommodation requests should be submitted by January 24th. Requests after that date can be accommodated if the student provides documentation of the reason for the late request.

CAEPThomas Edison State University’s Master of Arts in Educational Leadership Program, which is designed to prepare educators for roles in school leadership, was awarded CAEP accreditation in May 2023. CAEP’s purpose is to advance excellence in educator preparation through evidence-based accreditation that assures quality and supports continuous improvement to strengthen P-12 student learning. CAEP was formed in 2010 when NCATE and TEAC, two educational accrediting agencies, were consolidated. CAEP became formally recognized by CHEA (Council for Higher Education Accreditation) in 2014. Prior to receiving CAEP accreditation in 2023, the Masters in Educational Leadership program had been accredited by TEAC since 2015. The accreditation does not include individual education courses that the EPP offers to P-12 educators for professional development, licensure or other purposes. This accreditation certifies that the forenamed professional education program has provided evidence that the program adheres to CAEP’s standards and quality principles.
