Outlier courses have Univ. of Pittsburgh course numbers.
But none of them show up on Pitts course catalogue page:
https://catalog.upp.pitt.edu/
For that reason, traditional institutions can reject the credits.
This can happen easily.
To guarantee course credit transfer, I ask transfer credit specialist at traditional school to pre-evaluate the courses with syllabus PDF file.
Usually, they give me yes or no answers. For the Outlier course, it was no.
ASU EA course credits transfer easily because they're listed on ASU course catalogue and ASU have made PDF syllabus available.
All of EA courses are directly from ASU faculty members.
That's why I'm saying Outlier is a good idea but bad execution. They could offer their courses via local community college website, and send transcripts via community college.
