TESU - Microbiology - Upper Level Credit?

[Silly_Me]

Hey, guys. I'm curious to know if TESU automatically applies upper level credit to *all* microbiology courses, regardless of where the course is taken. What about pathophysiology? I ask this because Study.com offers both courses (in microbiology & pathophysiology) & they both transfer to TESU as upper level courses. Microbiology at Straighterline (which is labeled as a 200-level course) also transfers to TESU as a 300-level course. So, do you think a community college course (which is obviously lower level) in microbiology would transfer to TESU the same way - as an upper level course?

I should probably just contact TESU & ask them, but I figured I'd check with you guys first! There is such a wealth of knowledge on this forum. I greatly appreciate all the help!

I'm afraid TESU considers ALL CC courses lower level, even the course might otherwise be upper level if taken at a 4 year school. Personally, I think it makes no sense. If the content is the same, the credit should be as well, but that's not how they roll.

Sadly, all CC courses from a two year college will come in as a lower level course. That's how TESU works.
If you have taken the course at a 4 year college and it was an UL course, then it'll transfer as an UL course.
The reason you see Davar, Saylor/Straighterline/Study.com having a few courses is because it's evaluated by ACE/NCCRS as UL.
They don't necessarily need to follow those recommendations for credit, but most of the time, they do...
