Hey guys, I have what I hope is a quick question. I am pursuing a BA in computer science and currently have 78 credits applied, 60 from community college + 18 ACE. Since I have never attended a 4 year school, the max number of credits I can transfer is 90. The computer science degree says it is 120 credits, but is actually 121 since every class in the degree is 3 credits except calculus 1 which is 4 credits. Looking on My Progress, however, reveals that I really only need 3 credits of calculus. I completed calculus 1 on sophia which says it is worth 4 ACE credits.
The question I have is, when they transfer it over, will it count as 3 credits of transfer, or 4? The reason I ask is because if it is 4 credits, I will be at 82 credits transferred in and could only bring 2 additional ACE courses, bringing me to 88 credits, but if they only apply 3 of the 4 credits as transfer, I will have 81 and can bring 3 additional courses. I emailed advising last week to ask if an exception could be made which would allow me to transfer 91 credits, since the degree need 121 and I'd still be taking 30 with TESU, and they told me that no exceptions would ever be made regarding maximum transfer credit.
