Alternative Credit Project closing down

[cookderosa]

with any ACE course, if you try to add a course's completion with a date that is outside of the range, it's blocked. You'll get message to choose a different date.

Ah, thanks. That's the kind of info I was looking for. We haven't taken any of those courses yet but I was curious about this since the ACP FAQ says this: "institutions are no longer guaranteeing acceptance of these courses. Please reference the institutions website or contact the institution directly to determine whether the course(s) is/are accepted." Which seems to imply that some schools may still accept them and Fayetteville State Univ. still has ACP transfer info on their website and I have a feeling they would still accept it but I think it would definitely have to have the ACPE course code for them to accept it....

I believe Fayetteville is just slow to update their website. If you're targeting them, you should email them directly - you may already know, but none of the UNC schools or community colleges in NC accept ACE credit, so the ACPE relationship with Fayetteville was a HUGE WIN.... but I'm pretty sure they're done.

A while before they ended, I messaged the CEO of Straighterline and asked about building transfer agreements with the colleges that will fall off when the ACPE expires. He said they were pursuing it, but I haven't heard anything yet.

You could talk to the school to see if they will still work directly with the course provider. But you can't add a course to ace if you completed it after it's expiration date.>>


Aside from some Saylor courses, all the other courses inside ACPE were already ACE evaluated for credit, so it's a matter of asking them to take ACE now without the ACPE. Personally, I think SL missed a damn good chance of making this happen. They should have built the bridge BEFORE it expired- getting them on board as a partner school, but they missed that chance. <confused>
