Jumpcourse

It doesn't appear that JumpCourse stats course is getting ACE credit anymore as part of the Alternative Credit Project. I checked both TESC and Miami-Dade College and neither gives credit for the Stats Course anymore. My son is in the stats class right now and I am hoping it isn't true. I have emailed the company, but if anybody has insight on this I would appreciate.

I think something was mistaken or a mistake made somewhere, ask or email them again.
That's so weird though. I just checked the ACE Credit Registry and it's good until 1/31/2018

Furthermore, on TESU ACP webpage, it still lists the course: Alternative Credit Project

So far, I have pulled up three different colleges and neither have JumpCourse listed anymore for math course anymore. Something must have happened over the last week. If anyone finds out any more information please let me know.

First off, which colleges are you referring to? Most importantly, which school are you wanting to transfer to?

I wanted to transfer Statistics to Miami Dade College, but it is not on there website now. I just looked at this list last week and it was there. Professional Training | Earn College Credits | Prior Learning Assessment | Miami Dade College

For the most part, I don't think there's anything wrong at the moment. I don't see it on the link you provided me either.
It's interesting if it's not showing on 3 other colleges websites, but I don't see any updates in regards to losing ACE Recommendation.
I think they just need to update their websites, or they are in process of removing acceptance of JumpCourse.

As you're already enrolled at JumpCourse, your best bet right now is to email them/leave them a voicemail with your inquiry.
Someone will get back to you on Monday at the earliest, since it's already Friday evening.
I wouldn't come to conclusions with them rejecting your statistics course after finishing it (unless it's in writing/email).

It looks like ALL of JumpCourse has been removed from their website. Normally, schools seem to be an all-or-nothing type of deal - they take all of the ACP courses, or none of them. I'm not sure why they would take everything except 1 provider.

I would just call on Monday and see what's up. Both with JumpCourse (who should be VERY motivated to see what the issue is and fix it ASAP) and with the school itself - it could easily be a mixup.

With any of these agreements, colleges can and will pick and choose what they will accept. That's why the ACE Alternative Credit Project website is there to inform you which colleges will accept which courses. I don't know how often it's updated, though. I just got through looking at a Jumpcourse syllabus, and the course looked rather basic. So, I wouldn't be surprised if a college determined that their courses aren't equivalent to their own versions.

Yes, but they removed ALL of the courses! I'm in the middle of Microeconomics, and while I don't love it, it is certainly thorough! It's taking FOREVER to get through all 20 modules, each having 4-13 areas - 162 sections in all.

Intro to Sociology, Psychology - those are basic courses in themselves, I can't believe that they don't stack up to the CLEP exams!?!

OP which did you choose? JumpCourse has two options: $99 for using it as an exam/study resource for corresponding CLEP/DSST and similar exams.
The other option $149, gives 3 credits after a proctored final exam has been completed. I don't recall the company name of the online proctor.
