After many conversations with an Academic Advisor from COSC, they finally admitted (I don't think they meant to) that it "was unfair" that people were using COSC just for degree completion and not taking courses directly from them (at $1,500 each).
So, basically, they are not taking a course if they have the same course in their online catalog. This pertains mostly to upper level courses, but be careful because they could claim it for anything when you go to transfer.
Also, Study.com has shut down any Saylor transfers for the same reason.
This especially pertains to Computer Science - after July 1 only 5 courses from SDC will transfer to COSC (down from 25+ last fall), and none at all from Saylor Academy (down from 5 last fall). But I get the feeling that this will happen in all areas - COSC is determined to become a full-fledged online school, and to limit mere "degree completion."
I applied and was accepted there last month, and every phone call I had, every email, only talked about taking classes through them. When classes would start, the cost, etc... all trying to steer new students towards being "regular online" students through COSC.
I saw you posted this same thread in multiple areas which you don't need to do. The other thread was deleted.
COSC is a school in which you need to bring in all your credits before you enroll as they charge quarterly enrollment fees.
I heard they were getting more strict with SDC. In the case SDC credits are denied going against the Study.com transfer guide, you could appeal, then if still denied, I would find another school that take 75%+ transfer credits
