Does UMass Global accept Sophia and Study?

Hi there. Does Umass Global accept Sophia and Sudy... and how many credits maximum thay can accept? Thanks

[rachel83az]

Yes, they do. Study.com is listed here: https://www.umassglobal.edu/admissions/t...ve-credits While Sophia isn't mentioned directly there, acceptance has been hidden on the ACP page. Which is silly, because ACP no longer exists. But Sophia equivalencies are here: https://umassglobal.sophia.org/#courses

Up to 75% of credits can be transfered. Of those 75%, I don't think that there is a maximum number of ACE.

The biggest limitation comes in your grades. If you score below 81.5%, the course won't be accepted.

@nguyenquocbuu, there are no maximum credits transferable to UMass Global. Just like UMPI and many more institutions, you can transfer in as many credits as you want. Each institution has their residency requirements, UMASS, UMPI both require 30 credits residency in a degree program, thus only 90 credits will go towards a degree, but in your transcripts, it can be over 120... The main thing is, if you're going with UMASS is to try to get over that 81.5% in order to get credit. You should shoot for higher anyways for the experience, knowledge, and learning...

It's not easy to get over that percent. Last time I did Intro to Networking on STC and got got 83%. It was hard work.
