Will COSC accepts my foreign credits as Non-Ace credits?

If you need 4, I would suggest you pick 5 to study. Even though they're relatively easy 100-level courses, you can't know how well you'll do ahead of time. I didn't do as well as I thought I would do on Astronomy due to the lab component. The maths were suprisingly difficult and not well explained (IMO). At one point, I wasn't sure that I'd even get a C in the class, but I barely managed to get a B.

Actually, since this is the last chance to get these classes for such a low price, I'd actually suggest signing up for 6 or 7 classes. The first week will be difficult but, in the second week, you can drop the 3 or 4 that you think will be the most difficult. Since it doesn't cost anything to sign up, there is no penalty for doing this.

Sorry for the late response. This is great advice! I only need 4 but I think I will pick 5 to study to make sure I'll pass. Thanks!

As most of you know, recently COSC changes the rules, and the 90-ACE/30 Non ACE credits is the most polemic change.

Now I'm looking more to the side of EC, but I don't rule out COSC entirely, specially because of lower prices.

The problem is to collect the 30 non-ACE credits.

My queston is, will they take my 19 foreign credits as non-ACE credits??

Because if so I can get the others with ASU.

I'm a student at COSC and am in the same boat as you. I remember reading that foreign credit must be transferred through ECE or WES, so I asked the school about it and they replied:

"If you have your foreign credits evaluated through ECE or WES and it is deemed that the University has the equivalent of US regional accreditation, then the courses are transferable. Because they would have been earned at an Institution with the equivalent of US Regional Accreditation, they would be treated the same as credits from a US School and won’t be limited according to the policy you are referring to. That policy applies to course providers that are NOT colleges and are not subject to the standards of accreditation."

The policy I was referring to was the 90-ACE credit rule, and it looks like credits evaluated through ECE or WES don't apply to this, so good news it looks like!
