Excelsior posted all of my ACE credits including all my 13 TEEX credits. They posted all my *DSST (78 SH) *CPL (64) *JST Military/ACE (48) *CBA (44) *CLEP (42) *FEMA IS (40) *FEMA EM (38) *ECE/UExcel (30) *PLA Portfolio (28) *EMI/ACE (19) *TEEX/ACE (13) *CWE (11) *NFA/ACE (10) *Kaplan/ACE (3) *CPC (2) *AICP/ACE (2) *Sophia/ACE (1) *FRTI-UM/ACE (1).

They posted all my FCC FEMA IS Credits and CCC EM credits that TESU would not on both.

As Life Long Learning is pointing out, they will grant credit for everything that is ACE-approved (or NCCRS approved I think). The only issue - as it is with any school - is whether those credits will fit into your degree plan.

100% agree!

No, it's not absolutely true that the only issue is whether or not credits apply to a degree plan. A person may want to go beyond the minimum credits for a degree. The additional credits could show breadth beyond the degree requirements. Add some free credits while waiting for the next session to start, for example.

I have only seen this officially in accounting in the Federal Gov.  I have seen job postings for BS degrees and ++ more credits in accounting credits.

I didn't say this was the only issue in regards to what you're talking about, I said it was in regards to the question you asked - what free credits will they grant credit for.  They will grant credit for anything that's ACE or NCCRS-approved.

I guess I was confused by what you were asking, I'll be sure not to answer any of your questions again.  Sorry.
