But the accreditation h as expired. Many schools will not accept expired ACE courses. We never know when a school will stop accepting credits from a provider until they announce it. It's usually a very short window after the announcement is made in which they are still acceptable.

That's not usually how it works. If the course is taken and put on the ACE transcript before the course expires then it's perfectly valid. If you try to take and transcript a course after expiration, this is where you run into issues.

Like I said MANY schools don't accept them once they're expired. I did not say ALL. I have attended a school which does NOT accept expired ACE credits.

Thank you, this is what we (Mom and I) thought.

Criteria for Admission:
In order to be admitted to the University, an applicant must:
- Possess a high school degree, GED, or a secondary home school diploma that meets the requirements of the applicant's state of residency, and
- Be 20 years of age or older, or 18 years or older and an active member of the United States military (not applicable to military spouses, dependents or relations).
- Individuals under 18 years of age will not be permitted to take courses or enroll in the University.

I think if you're 18, you can enroll with a waiver; also EC will let you enroll earlier.  Both are expensive options though, they are WAY more than COSC for an AA.

Thank you @dfrecore, I don't have RA credits (I think that means in a brick & mortar?). All of my courses have been online. I don't think I will be going into a college any time soon either because of the restrictions. So, I think TESU is out since I don't think I will qualify by next year for the 18 age with 24 RA. I am going to look into Excelsior (EC). Do you know if an updated degree plan is posted here? I think my Mom has the ones posted several years ago...if it hasn't changed I can look at the one we have. 
BTW, this thread my Mom posted.

RA does not have to be a B&M college. Yes, community college courses count as RA. RA means regionally accredited. That means you take credit at a regionally accredited college which can be an online school or a B&M school. Many B&M schools are doing it all online this semester.


Thanks for the clarification. Do you happen to know of any online off the top of your head that aren't too expensive (yes, cheap please) at the moment.

Conferred AUG 2023 - AAS BOG, Business AoE, Pierpoint Community & Technical College

118 total RA & Alt credits from ONU, ASU, ACE (Aleks, SDC, SL, Sophia)

Applied in JAN 2024 to UMPI for MAR 2024 term (pending) | BA in HIS & POL SCI
