Study.com Credits at TESU expire

Is there a benefit to having the TESU classes transfer into Study as a specific class compared to other schools where they don't?  If so, what is the benefit?

You mean beyond being able to easily tell which SDC course will meet what requirement?

Yes.  I have a study rep helping me to map classes to the requirements so I'm fine there, but is there another benefit I'm not seeing?

There are no other benefits, the numbers don't really mean a thing when being transferred to another school. It's just a classification system for categorizing everything in an orderly fashion, like at a library. For the corresponding numbers - It's just to show for 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th year... the only thing you will know from the number is, it's either lower level or upper level, each school will have it show differently.

Here is what I got from TESU:

It appears that ACE has changed the recommendation for the Study.com course, Psychology 301. Between August 2017 and December 2020, it would have transferred as an upper level course (PSY-401). Now that it's been changed, the new review period runs from January 2021 through August 2023 and the recommendation is PSY-163.

oh dear.  did that one in August so it counted.

I noticed on NCCRS site that SDC course is still listed at upper level.  Maybe the NCCRS link would help with your appeal. ?

@Dumber, if you do get push back from Academic Advising, you may want to do what p226mem said.  NCCRS still lists this course as Upper Level, so there is another round of ammo pointing to TESU that this course still should be considered as Upper Level.  But pointing out ACE is the way to go, if you need to, follow up with them mentioning NCCRS also evaluated the course as Upper Level.
