TESC / ACE Eval Help

[jam123]

I'm seeking some advice.

I obtained Microsoft MCTS: Windows Server 2008 R2, Virtualization certification. ACE recommends two upper level credits in computer science, computer information systems or information technology. TESC awarded the credits as CAP-347 Local Area Networks. TESC said the course does not map into my Area of Study as it is more applications based. I was hoping TESC would award this as a CIS or COS prefix (per ACE) so I could use as a computer science elective.

I also received CIS 311 Database Management for my MCDBA cert and CIS 312 Database Management for my MCTIP SQL 2008 cert. I thought different course numbers would be ok but TESC says they are duplicates.

Is there any way for me to challenge these? Now I will be 2 upper level credits short for graduation in September.

Thanks

You can submit a formal appeal to their finding, see the second portion of this link:
Procedures and Appeal Guidelines for Transfer Credit Evaluations

I sent one in six weeks ago and haven't a response yet (just so you know)...

I already waited 7 weeks for them to process this ACE transcript. I need to graduate in September and can't wait another 7+ weeks for some appeal. Rats!

I have an advising appt tomorrow. My new plan is to take an 8 week course (5/7 - 7/1) at APU . I just need to see if I can still graduate in Sept. based on the timing of the course. Ugg

** The single worse thing about TESC is the time it takes to process a freaking transcript. Unreal!

Good luck to you. I know what you're saying, they're sitting on CLEP, DSST, and ACE transcripts along with that appeal of mine!
