I sent a message to my advisor asking about C++ from Straighterline because it is not listed on the course equivalency list. She informed me that the course meets the business programming language requirement for the Excelsior BSBA-MIS. This was a pleasant surprise that I wanted to share with everyone. Just because a course isn't listed on the equivalency document doesn't mean it won't be accepted.

EC has accepted my few SL courses that are not in the equivalency list. Eg : Introduction to communications, Intro to Environmental Science. I have got approval from my Technology advisers before signing up for the SL courses.
Thanks

I don't think the equivalency documents have been updated in awhile.

This goes for every school concerning the newer Straighterline courses. I'm sure schools only review the courses periodically, and Straighterline only updates the equivalency sheets periodically.
