Risk of duplicate (and uncounted) credits?

Yes, courses duplicate when they are transferred in with the same course name/number and you'll be wasting energy, money, time on the same course... If the course name/numbers are different when they transfer in, then they will not duplicate, these would be ones I would take... Unless you really want to "relearn/review material", I would not recommend retaking courses with the same name again...

Examples: I took StraighterLine Fundamental of IT and Sophia.org Introduction to IT for review, they will come in the same CIS-107, I also took other courses such as ALEKS College Algebra, Trig, Precalculus and I have a duplicate Precalculus credit. There are a few more... just make sure to take courses that don't duplicate and you should be fine.
