But if I transfer them to ACE first and then transfer them they will come in as a "P" and not affect my GPA.  In other words, if I make below an 'A' then I should use ACE to keep my 4.0.  

Is this correct?  Thanks!!

So, is it true that whatever COSC enters into the transcript first (pass/fail vs grade), that is what stays on the transcript, even if the same course comes in later via a different method?

For example: If our son took Intro to communications through SL, put it on the ACE course list and transfers it into COSC via ACE, then it would show as pass on the COSC transcript. Later, suppose he takes C++ programming and wants to have a grade assigned because it looks good for future Graduate School admissions in a computer science field. If he has his SL transcript sent to COSC, both courses would be on it. Will the "pass" stay for the Intro to comm class or would it then be replaced by the grade? I assume not.

For both SL and study.com, can you pick and choose which courses to send or can it only be "just this course", meaning the most recent one?

My membership is on pause until March 17 - I can't access anything.  Sorry, I don't know. Dfrecore would know.  I don't think we can tag people?

You understand it correctly, however.... there's a catch.  The registrar specifically told me (for my son) that we can't pick and choose- that it's either ACE or direct, meaning he can't send a partial transcript from Straighterline (I tried- it included all his A&B classes but none of his C classes).  They had already evaluated his credits from ACE, so it was a waste of time.  BUT, since that initial eval, he took Business Stats through straighterline and we sent it directly and they added it as a grade!  Same with studycom.  

So, here's my suggestion to work this to your advantage- if you pass a class with a good grade, send it directly to COSC.  If you get a C and would rather have the pass, send it to ACE. DO NOT SEND YOUR ACE TRANSCRIPT until you're finished- and then everything will come in only once, so you'll get your grades AND your passes.
Now, to cover your rear, AFTER you've done this, then go into ACE and get the rest of your classes put on your ACE transcript.  You never want to forget that or they'll be "lost" if something were to happen to studycom or straighterline- but you have to wait until after or everything will be on your ACE transcript and you'll have a mess of a time.
