This is ACE as in 'American College of Education' - https://ace.edu, not to be confused with the ACE credits we talk about here which are 'American Council on Education' - https://www.acenet.edu

Oh okay. Thanks.

ACE is mentioned a lot in the forum and sister forum; however, I rarely, if ever, read about someone starting and not sure ever finishing. It's surprising because their cost is decent at the master level and competitive at the doctorate level.

I understand their accreditation can be problematic for teaching in some states; perhaps this Public Health will be a solid lane for them to create more awareness of their entire portfolio.

Why would their accreditation be an issue?

I don’t think there is any issue with accreditation. They are RA. They do not participate in federal funding which is why they are so low. They also have some scholarships available. This particular program is not relevant for me, but I have considered a few of their programs myself. Particularly in Education (non-teaching). I just realized that they have some scholarships available that I could qualify for. Very tempted to try them out with a microcredential at some point.

Accreditation was misleading, as the issue was in reference to the need for a teaching license in addition to the degree for several states outside of Indiana. This requirement is not unique to ACE, though it eliminates them for most since the more accessible routes would be to attend an in-state school.

How long are the courses typically at ACE? 8 weeks long?
