All schools have their own grading criteria and that grading criteria changes from undergrad to graduate credentials.  You need to look at each institution...

But they will always accept a Sophia/Study.com course, right?

Even if the grade is 70%?

The grades of all my courses are 80% or more, but I think my Sophia-Public Speaking could get a 70% to 79% grade because of my non-native pronunciation on speech videos.

Sophia is pass/fail when you send your courses in on a Credly transcript, so you should be fine. I'm not sure if COSC expects a grade from SDC or not but I don't think they care about your grade there either.

Maybe I remember wrong, but I think I have read here in the forum that EC asks for 80% more for this type of course (SDC, Sophia, Saylor, etc).

I know some schools do require percent grades but I don't think that COSC or EC are in that category.

Brandman (soon to be UMass Global) is the one that requires the courses to be 80%+ to be transferable from ACE sources, all others just need that 70% threshold.

70% is a C at most schools, so a C on Sophia.org should transfer to most schools that will take Sophia.

Charter Oak will accept some D- or above grades.

TESU will take a D or D+, but not a D-. TESU won't let you use D or D+ grades for major or core requirements.
