Penn Foster Transcript Question - runnergirlnae - 06-14-2016

I have seen a lot of things around the forum about getting Penn Foster course transcripts through ACE. Is that the best way to get Penn Foster course transcripts?

I emailed Ann Gardner and she sent me an unofficial copy of my transcript.
Most people just add their ACE approved courses to the ACE transcript so that all of their ACE approved course work (from various providers) are listed on one document. I am not sure if PF charges for official transcripts. However, requesting one ACE transcript that includes DSST, CLEP, Straigherline, Penn Foster..ect is much more cost effective that requesting individual ones...

If you want to transfer your PF courses to TESU, it has to be on an ACE transcript rather than on a PF transcript. This is because TESU does not accept credits from NA schools, which PF is. But since some of the courses are ACE-approved, that's how they get in.

Just do it the way you normally would - log in to your ACE account and request that the course be added to your transcript, with the correct completion date. Mine was added within a couple of days.

Is it going to be an issue for me if I already requested to have PF send a transcript to TESU?

Not an issue, just do the ACE thing. Not sure what TESU will do with it, but they won't add it to your transcript.

+1, I would recommend going through ACE as well. If it's been sent, it's just a waiting game.
You don't have to worry about anything, you'll know once TESU receives it and they'll follow up with you.
