I have used the search box and google search but still can't find an answer. Will ALEKS credits work for the CCAF math requirements? It sure would help if CCAF accepted those credits!

I hope it helps!

I looked at that one being one of the only ALEKS and CCAF posts on this website. The only problem is that it stopped in 2010 before the person trying to get it done posted their results. So I may just have to contact someone at CCAF if no one has the answer of if it will transfer. Thanks for the help.

If you read the posts further, the OP on that thread tried three separate strategies (ALEKS to ACE to CCAF, ALEKS to FHSU to CCAF, ALEKS to TESC to CCAF) and all three did NOT work. He then went and did SL to FHSU to CCAF and apparently it worked for him. Read through the entire thread and your answer is there. In summaray ALEKS courses do NOT transfer to CCAF.

It won't. CCAF will not accept ACE credits for General Education requirements.

Thank you by the way for providing a ton of useful info in your previous thread.

Clep and DSST are ACE credit points. I have had six credit hours aplied from Extrainstitutional testing to the general requirements of my CCAF degree. For a better answer I emailed the education advisor at Tinker and a CCAF contact that I found. I will post the response of those emails on here. I have read the posts. The people that tried never kept the thread going and it died in 2010. I just wanted to know if anything has changed from then until now. So I will post a definitive answer so everyone will no yes or no. Thanks for all of the responses.

No, it won't transfer. ALEKS is great but you would be much better served for CCAF purposes (and frankly for any/all future college transfers other than Big 3) by using ALEKS as a teaching tool to supplement studying for the CLEP. The CLEP will get you in the door most places, and knock out your CCAF requirement.

BTW if you are doing ALEKS college algebra you should try the College Math CLEP, 6 credits fairly easy. It's the equivalent of a finite math ("math for those who won't go through algebra") course. Just be sure to study some basic probability and logic too.

That would be helpful for those thinking of going through the same route. As for an updated answer, I recently attended NCOA and just so happened to have had (and still have) a CCAF rep in my class (talk about irony). I asked him the same question that I asked back in 2010 and was given the same response, the general credits received from ALEKS and then transferred to an ACE transcript will not be added to ones degree program. If you find out anything different, please let me know. I'll just say, your degree manager/administrator down in Alabama is who you need to talk to about that as they can provide a much better explanation. You're in OKC, I'm sure your Base Ed is much better than my own. Good luck and keep us posted!

Has anyone tried Penn Foster for Math? Math is my last one and I am not doing so good studying for it. I was wondering if Stats would transfer to CCAF.
