OnlineDegree.com transcript

[ss20ts]

Does anyone have experience transferring OnlineDegree.com courses to schools they don't have preexisting agreements with? Did it work?

I'm asking because I'm a little confused about the transcript options—one is to have the transcript sent from OnlineDegree.com, and the other on Excelsior College letterhead. From what I can gather, though, the latter option is not an Excelsior transcript and still lists all the classes as taken from OnlineDegree.com.

So what would be the advantage of using Excelsior letterhead? The courses are still marked as NCCRS and will only transfer to schools that accept NCCRS credits, correct? Or does the Excelsior thing transform them into RA or ACE equivalents in the eyes of some colleges/universities?

Sorry if this has been discussed elsewhere. I searched but couldn't find anything.

I asked EC about this and they said that the credits will show as OnlineDegree not EC. It's $40 per transcript which is a pricey transcript. Yes, OnlineDegree courses are free, but you have to pay for that transcript and proctor fee along with not being ACE credits you may be better off taking classes through Sophia or InstantCert. 

From the website's FAQs:

 If I Choose the Excelsior College Transcript Does That Mean I’ve Taken Courses From Excelsior?

No. We have a partnership with Excelsior College where they will produce your OnlineDegree.com Transcript on their official university letterhead. That means when you take this to a university it will be a document from Excelsior College, but will indicate the courses were taken at OnlineDegree.com. This is a better option than our printed transcript since it’s from an accredited university, and we highly recommend them.
