So I know we are all waiting for some of the new courses to be approved in Psychology and Accounting, but I was looking at the ACE database today and noticed two new courses for sure and possibly others. Spanish 101 Beginning and 102 Intermediate are now ACE-approved but the 102 is currently only 2 credits. I am also pretty sure the 301 Marketing course is new and there is an Accounting 303 course. Also looks like a new Sociology course. I'm not 100% positive on all of these, but maybe someone can check out the database and notice some other new ones. The TESU transfer page hasn't been updated in quite a while so that's not much help as of now.

I like how Study.com still went with Cost Accounting, when they reached out and asked me what they might want to add I told them Upper Level Accounting and Intermediate Accounting I/II. Accounting Majors needed only 1 more UL course and Intermediate Accounting II and they could have completed the degree via SL/Study.com. Now with them adding Cost Accounting its just another place to get Cost Accounting. I really hope to see them add that one more UL Accounting Course but at this point it will be AFTER I am all done.
I mean Kudos to Study.com for making Study.com a one stop shop once they get both Intermediate Accounting courses approved. I'd really like to see them try and add courses that assist us in completing degree Area of Studys or core areas and not more General Education courses.

I'd been begging them for Employment Law, which they did get approved, but only for 2 credits. I wish my son could have knocked that course out prior to enrolling at WGU, but knowing how long it takes, I imagine it won't be bumped up to 3 for several more months - and he's ready to get going with WGU.
Here Researching for my son, who has done the following:
Community College: Intro to Philosophy, Fundamentals of IT, English Comp 1
Saylor: Intro to Business, Principles of Marketing, Corporate Communication
Shmoop: US History 2 (WGU won't accept this)
ALEKS: Int. Algebra, College Algebra

Straighterline: US History 2, Environmental Science, US History, Microeconomics, Macroeconomics, English Comp 2, Principles of Management, Business Law, Business Ethics, Psychology, Organizational Behavior, Accounting 1,Communication, Managerial Accounting, Statistics
Ed4Credit: Managing Information Systems
Sophia: Project Management
WGU: Bachelors in HR Management
Second son is currently attending Penn Foster for his high school diploma, then on to Ashworth for An Associates in Criminal Justice

I remember they got Public Speaking bumped from 2 credits to 3 credits rather quickly so having the course already approved possibly speeds it up.

Is he certain that they won't accept the course at WGU? I mean, if he is using Study.com anyway to take some courses for Gen Ed, it certainly couldn't hurt to take the course and try to get credit for it. Then, if WGU accepts it, he's done. If they don't, he probably will be ¾ of the way through their course, and can quickly test out/get through it.

They confirmed they will not accept it. They are very particular about these things. I'd suggested to my son he go ahead and do the current course and then wait a few months to see if it gets bumped up, but he told me he wants to start WGU June 1 so he can be done by December - if it was me I'd wait a bit, but ah well.

I'd at least take it, since he's not going to take the final exam, then it won't cost him anything (I'm assuming he already has a membership).
