University of Arizona - Sophia (ACE) Guide

[dy4242]

I just stumbled across this at https://edgecastcdn.net/006FDC/Transfer_..._Guide.pdf, a Sophia/ACE transfer guide for the University of Arizona Global Campus degrees. It is dated 08/25/2023, so it should be up-to-date!


EDIT: They actually have a WGU-style page that shows even more sources: https://www.uagc.edu/admissions/traditional

Interesting. The last time I looked at UofA, they still had Ed4Credit listed and barely accepted any CLEP exams.

It's interesting that they're listing Texas community colleges, along with Sophia/Straighterline/Saylor/etc.

Just so it is clear, this is about 'University of Arizona Global Campus' (currently for-profit) and although affiliated, it is not the 'University of Arizona' (non-profit)

Still, it is always good to hear of a RA schools that appear to be alternative credit friendly (you can transfer in Max 90 credits)

That's right, they're Ashford U renamed after UOA purchased them... Make sure to get the 15 RA, 75 ACE/NCCRS, and the remaining 30 credits from UAGC if you decide to go with them, they have a pretty good program list and some may be appealing, it'll be similar to the ones we recommend but a bit more expensive if you don't already have the RA.

Be $15,000 at a minimum to go to that school.

True but there are some employer partnerships like Guild.

To be clear, the REAL University of Arizona does NOT accept ACE credits. I already tried. They also don't waive gen eds even if you have a BS or BA

That's right, as this would be very similar to Purdue University and the Purdue University Global subsidiary, the requirements for entry and the degree are different (along with other things)...

The global university is completely separate and your degree will say global on it.
