ACE Credits? - desoren - 02-03-2021

So I've been out of the loop and just now realized that ACE no longer transfers credits? Maybe I'm missing something but I'm unsure how to track down where to find them now. I am looking into the UMPI self pace programs and trying to see if any of my credits will transfer. Thanks for any info in helping me find my credits LOL, Also, UMPI students, are they good with accepting credits from SDC and Sophia? Thank you

So, ACE credits now go Acclaim/Credly instead of to the actual ACE website. The whole thing is still a bit of a mess. The basics for various sites can be found here: https://degreeforum.miraheze.org/wiki/American_Council_on_Education You should check your spam folder for email from Acclaim/Credly because it's possible that Sophia might have tried to automatically push the badges to your account that you don't have.

Do you know where your credits came from? Was there more than just Sophia/SDC? If you had TEEX credits or anything like that then you might not see them for a while.

Where did you take your ACE credits from? If any are on Sophia, you can send an electronic transcript via the Parchment electronic transcription service for $5.25. Yes, they accept Study and Sophia. Ashkir has a thread on here showing how all of the Sophia courses were accepted when he transferred to UMPI. Feel free to send me a pm with any questions you have about UMPI or the YourPace program. I've been enrolled since August and graduate next month.

I think mostly SDC, I'm looking at their Liberal studies with minor in education. Really looking for cheapest route and this looks possible if I can get do credits on SDC and Sophia. Any info would be appreciated. I actually looked into them in 2019 and most of my AA credits were accepted so I have a long way to go. Thanks

If you already have a bunch of credits, I would apply (it's free) and send the transcripts. Then you can see just how much is left. It may make more sense to finish what you have left at UMPI. You are required to complete 30 credits at UMPI plus a minimum of UL credits mush be completed at UMPI and you must complete the GEC (gen eds). They offer every course needed to complete all of their degrees.
