I just got the answer from the source:
Communications 120 is currently credit recommended by the National College Credit Recommendation Service (NCCRS). You can find a list of their schools and courses below.

Like all courses on Study.com, this is a course submitted for credit recommendations to both ACE and NCCRS. At this time only the NCCRS has gotten back to us about credit recommendation. We expect to have it credit recommended by both entities shortly, but unfortunately have no timeframe.
I hope that helps clarify any confusion. Please don't hesitate to reach out with any further questions.

The NCCRS has a direct partnership with Excelsior college. Paperwork is completed by student and Study.com to get Excelsior transcripts sent to the destination of your choice.
Hope that helps clarify any confusion.

Hello,
Thank you for your prompt response.
There is a $40 NCCRS setup fee and a $12 transcript cost.
DSST CLEP and AP all use ACE credit recommendation. This is why they can add them to pre-existing transcripts. ACE has not credit approved Communications 120 at this time therefore they cannot add it to a transcript as they have not verified if it is worth credits.
We do believe at some point in the future ACE will finish the paperwork and accept Communications 120 for credit, but there is no time-frame for this completion.
At this time if you want credit for Communications 120 through Study.com you will need to submit it via NCCRS and get Excelsior College transcripts.
Hope that helps clarify any confusion. Please don't hesitate to reach out with any further questions.
