Does anyone else remember those art ads for Tippy the Turtle or the Pirate- found in magazines and on match book covers ....
Well I was looking over the programs listed in ACE's national guide and I was surprised to learn that Art Instruction Schools was on the list. It seems people in their art program can earn up to 24 credits.
Am I the only one amazed by this bit of information ?

LOL!! Oh yes, I remember those! Didn't someone once blow the lid on that school? How ever do you recall the name of the turtle!?!? :confused:
Well, the thing to remember, is that those are not regionally accredited credits- so can't be used at the big 3 or most public colleges/universities.

Ah now I am confused, I thought if they were reviewed by ACE they could be transferred to colleges that accepted ACE transcripts. Much like the Penn Foster course that are ACE reviewed.

So sorry, I didn't read your first post well enough- I thought the school gave 24 credits. If they go through ACE, they should work as long as they fit into the degree plan.
