Penn Foster courses are P/F on the ACE transcript, correct? - dfrecore - 03-04-2016

Taking my first course there, was looking at my grade, and realized that I don't really have to work hard for an A if it doesn't matter.

Yes you don't have to because my Penn Foster class is recorded as credit on my TESU evaluation from ACE transcript. I really like PF classes because you can finish it in less than 5 days. Once you are done and grades are posted, go to ACE website ND add it to your transcript and next day it's there, fast!

What class are you taking?

I am taking 4 classes there, too (Int'l Mgmt, Strat. Mgmt., Financial Mgmt -done, and Consumer Behavior). Done with Int'l Mgmt. and Consumer Beh except for finals - waiting for my projects to be graded. Then will finish Strat mgmt project next week. Is it better to wait and send one transcript together, or as I complete each one? This is all I have left (except 2 DSST's which I will finish up next week) and I want to be sure I make the cutoff for June Grad.

Wait, since Penn Foster is its own accredited college (albeit NA), won't the letter grade still count on their own transcripts? Anything you transfer in to other schools will only show up as P/F or CR/NCR on the new school's transcripts generally, but the grade doesn't really disappear. If a grad school wants you to submit transcripts for ALL schools attended, and you didn't do so hot at Penn Foster, they'll see it (assuming they review NA transcripts -- but you'd be surprised at how many do; every ABA approved law school for example reviews NA transcripts for their GPA reclalculation [via LSAC]).

Ah...good to know. I'm not planning on going to Grad school, except WGU or Patten, so it won't matter. But still good to know that the grades actually will count somewhere.
