Just curious, if this would be a benefit for my daughter for Graphic Design? Online College Degrees - Affordable & Accredited I know it's not a bachelors program, but would it count as credits towards personal learning for a Liberal Arts @TESC?

Ashworth College is DETC accredited (National), and will most likely not transfer.

PrLoko-isms Don't waste time by trying to save time. The only sure way to complete your degree is to knock out credits quickly and efficiently. Don't let easiness bite you in the rear. Know your endgame (where you want to be) and plan backward from there. Your education is a means to an end. Be honest professionally, socially and academically. There are people (especially little ones) who look up to you and they're going by your example. Be proud. Whether you're an Engineer or Fast Food worker, there is honor and dignity in hard work. Picking on people weaker than you only proves that you are a weak person.

It won't count in transfer anywhere that requires regional accreditation (TESC, community college, etc.) The accreditation is national, not regional. All things being equal, your dollar spends just as easy in a program that will transfer as one that won't.

I don't know if this is the case at Ashworth, but the career diplomas at Penn Foster aren't worth college credit. So, even if you find a school willing to accept credits from nationally accredited schools, you won't get credits for their career diplomas. They are more like professional development credits.

Penn Foster was one we were looking at for the Graphic Design program. Then my daughter was thinking of getting bachelors at TESC.

The only courses that transfer from Penn Foster are those listed on the ACE website.

I have taken the graphics arts program from Ashworth College. I am still a student there working on a AAS in Marketing. It is a career diploma course and does not count for any college credit. The program was ok but I believe the program from Penn Foster would have been better. Some of the classes that make up the Penn Foster program would most likely transfer if they have been approved by ACE.

I found this thread looking for something else and have already done this research so it may help someone in the future.
All of the college degree programs at Ashworth will transfer in their partner program - the National Transfer Network, which includes 4 regionally accredited schools (ASU, Norwich, SouthWestern and WGU).

ASU is a typo. It's supposed to be APUS.

Poptech's main argument is that Ashworth is cheaper. They currently have this deal where you get your fourth semester free. After that deal is over, they go back to being about as expensive as a community college.
