Hello and sorry if this has been posted else where, i tried searching but couldn't find what I needed.
I finished straighterline English composition 1, Medical terminology and Intro to psychology recently and was curious about how transcribing works from their partner colleges, If I submit my classes to western governor university will the credits show up as if I took the class from WGU or will it still have straighterline on the transcript? my local school that I just transferred to will only accept regionally accredited schools and I know WGU is ok with my school.

No idea, with WGU's different system it might not show up as SL... but your school really doesn't accept ACE approved credits?
Why not look into just doing the program you want with WGU, or one of the big three?

the program I'm doing is physical therapy assistant, which I don't think can be done online because of the clinical work.

Good point, but if I were you I'd search around as there might be just such a program.
For example, I know that WGU has teaching degrees that also get one the teachers license. Doing so requires classroom "student teaching" which they include as part of the program (they set you up with a local school for the required time). So there might be another school with a similar program for PT.
Might want to check EC, I know they do a lot of stuff for nursing so they might have something for PT.
