I am planning on enrolling in LUO next fall for a BS in Information Technology - Web & Mobile Programming. By March I will have earned 60 credits, 57 ACE and 3 NCCRS but different sources. 

I emailed Liberty to ask how many ACE credits I can transfer in to see if I need to vary my sources for the classes I haven't taken yet. I received a reply yesterday saying I could transfer all 57 ACE credits. It was just a question to their transfer department, not a transcript evaluation, so they didn't have a list of my classes or anything. I know that nothing is set in stone until I officially enroll and get a transcript evaluation, so I'm not trusting this too much.

I don't handle the pressure of CLEP/DSST tests well, so online classes are the way to go for me. 

My question is: Has anyone successfully transferred 57 ACE credits into Liberty University Online if they were earned in high school?

Thanks in advance for any advice you can give.

Also, if you didn't already know, if you take any of their Online Academy courses for about $550 each, they count as residency credit.  It's worth doing, especially for courses you can find there but not elsewhere.

Also, don't forget to ask for the 15% discount when you enroll next year, they give it for Sophia and SL courses.

Good luck!
