Non-US Credits & Acceptance - Messdiener - 03-24-2022
Does anyone have experience using Saylor, Sophia, or other courses & credits at colleges and universities outside of the US?
Similarly, what about non-American credit options? Between the usual sites, AP classes for high school students, and a few other alternative credit options, there are a lot of credit opportunities in America. What sites, institutes, or programs have you seen or tried to get course credits from abroad?
Thanks for any insights you can share on these two topics!

Thanks for the reply, but what is 'pos'?

Non-American universities are not going to accept ACE/NCCRS courses into their degrees. Some US universities don't even accept them!
You can bring non-American credits to the US (after evaluation) or bring credits from an American university to a foreign university, but not ACE/NCCRS credits to a foreign university. There is a reason why so many foreign students on this board wind up getting US degrees.

That is the good thing of TESU's credit banking model, I was trying to send my ACE transcript to South Texas College and they was not accepting them. So after I send the ACE credits that was already evaluated by TESU in a TESU transcript they accept almost all of them.

Being relative new to this site, this is exactly the information I was hoping to learn about. Thank you!

I'm guessing you mean all posts? And it is impossible for someone to read them all. There are too many. I personally have written 14,000 of them over 9+ years on this site. Do you want to try to read all of them? It's going to take you a while...
Also, are you saying that you've never asked a question that was already asked and answered on this forum?
