ACE-approved courses from DreamDegree
#1
I know they were mentioned on this forum before, but I can't remember if there was a focus on their ACE-approved courses. They now offer 28 courses several of which are in communications. Communications credits aren't easy to find as CBEs or non-college courses. I can't find the cost, but these might be great for communications and humanities majors.

Thanks. That means they are about the same price as Propero and Sophia.

Cost is $299 a course from what I could find: Courses

Here's their listing on ACE if anyone needs to this: ACE CREDIT | The National Guide to College Credit for Workforce Training

An interesting option.

Looks very much like DreamDegree is done. I had three courses planned in from there, but since I've been checking for the last week, their site is offline. Real shame, since it had some solid, reasonably priced options for upper level communications credits. I'll probably have to take those at BYU now and spend another $1000-ish Sad

Interesting idea CEO of DreamDegree on the evolution of online education |DrEducation: International Higher Education Blog

I wonder what happened to them.
MBA, Western Governors University February 2014

AS in EMS August 2010

I'm always happy to complete the free application waiver for those applying to WGU (I get a free gift from WGU for this).  Just PM me your first/last name and a valid email so I can complete their form.

DreamDegree Academics is "now known as ALIGN Degree Services," according to the latter's website.

I did a little digging around, and it seems like the setup is still operational under a different name. As for the courses I've got pre-approved at TESC, I'll have to check with the advisor to see if they still apply.
