New COSC policy for ACE and NCCRS providers

[dfrecore]

You need to be enrolled and the credits need to be processed and transcribed by July 1st. If you lose enrollment for whatever reason and try to re-enroll later, I don't believe the credits would count any longer. That happened with me and my FEMA credits.

The remainder of the credits can be done at any RA school, not just at COSC. Only the Cornerstone and Capstone HAVE to be done at COSC. So your choices for cheap credit then would be something like a local CC or NMJC or something like that.

I agree that you can take the remaining credits anywhere RA.  I'd go with a CC if possible; if you need UL, I'd do those ASAP through an ACE provider and get them on the transcript, and then finish with the CC (meaning make UL ACE your priority).

There are also some schools with relatively cheap UL credits like U of Arkansas Self-Paced, CSU Pueblo IS, U of Idaho IS, BYU IS - all less than $200/cr.
