Columbia Southern University.
#1
Hello, 
So I need to know if there is any degree plan on CSU's IT or Cybersecurity programs. 
Also, do they accept ACE credits ? I know they accept sophia and I have all gen eds done (except two)
I also have a lot of coursera google courses which have ACE credits which is why I need to know if they accept them or not.
What about credits from Nationally accredited universities ? are they accepted ? 
Thanks.

They accept Sophia, but do not have any published guides for Study dot com and Straighterline. They also take other ACE credits like the Google and IBM Certificates, but again no published guides.

You can see the Sophia classes listed in their Sophia page, as they are a partner, so in addition to the Gen eds, you can also fill in the electives with Sophia. The BS in IT has 42 credits of electives: https://columbiasouthern.sophia.org/#courses

Their Sophia partnership also gives you a discount on their tuition, around 10% IIRC.

You can also check on the Columbia Southern sub-reddit.

I gave up trying to fight with CSU on my straighterline credits. the kept saying the transcript wasn't official, same with Aleks / other credly transcripted courses. I don't think you would have this issue with study.com though because you can send a transcript through parchment

I wonder if they accept Onlinedegree.com credits given they accept NCCRS credits. OD sends the transcript directly to the school's physical address.

Basically, I would contact CSU and ask how they want to receive the transcripts, if it's official, it needs to come from the provider directly or at least through Credly, Parchment, NCCRS, etc...
