Grade Transfers

[vpassenheim]

Want to make sure I've got this right:

If I transfer classes in from the following to Charter Oaks, they come across as the grade you made:

• Study.com
  
• Straighterline
  
• Saylor
  

But if I transfer them to ACE first and then transfer them they will come in as a "P" and not affect my GPA.  In other words, if I make below an 'A' then I should use ACE to keep my 4.0.  

Is this correct?  Thanks!!

You understand it correctly, however.... there's a catch.  The registrar specifically told me (for my son) that we can't pick and choose- that it's either ACE or direct, meaning he can't send a partial transcript from Straighterline (I tried- it included all his A&B classes but none of his C classes).  They had already evaluated his credits from ACE, so it was a waste of time.  BUT, since that initial eval, he took Business Stats through straighterline and we sent it directly and they added it as a grade!  Same with studycom.  

So, here's my suggestion to work this to your advantage- if you pass a class with a good grade, send it directly to COSC.  If you get a C and would rather have the pass, send it to ACE. DO NOT SEND YOUR ACE TRANSCRIPT until you're finished- and then everything will come in only once, so you'll get your grades AND your passes.
Now, to cover your rear, AFTER you've done this, then go into ACE and get the rest of your classes put on your ACE transcript.  You never want to forget that or they'll be "lost" if something were to happen to studycom or straighterline- but you have to wait until after or everything will be on your ACE transcript and you'll have a mess of a time.

Argh! I wish I had seen this 2 weeks ago!
