Weâll also be updating our transfer guide with TESU in the coming weeks to include these newly recommended courses.
The full list of all our 73 ACE-recommended courses is available right here, and our listing on ACEâs National Guide is here.
Weâre constantly getting new courses recommended for college credit, so keep an eye out for more courses in the coming months.
Thank you!

This is amazing! Will these courses be ACE recommended for 3 credits each?

Amazing! I need 3 of these. Looks like I am signing up again!
Did I ever tell you how much I love you Study.com?

You'd really make things easy for me if those two COM courses were pushed back up to 3 credits... then I could avoid Straighterline altogether.

What's the difference between Basic Genetics and Intro to Genetics? They both have the same ACE recommendation.

Agreed sanantone!!
Study.com, there is also very very much a need for a good selection of ACE-approved upper level Social Science courses as well.
Examples of possible topics/course options I just found on TESU's website: HIS-356 War and American Society, POS-309 Dilemmas of War and Peace, POS-310 Constitutional Issues, PSY-300 Thanatology: An Understanding of Death and Dying, PSY-317 Worlds of Childhood, PSY-331 Introduction to Counseling, SOC-315 Social Gerontology, SOC-322 Dealing with Diversity, SOC-376 Women and Social Action, SOS-304 Drugs and Society.
Or UL topics which fall under these categories: anthropology, archaeology, economics, geography, history, labor studies, political science, psychology, sociology, and African-American studies; American studies; Asian studies; environmental studies; urban studies; women's studies.

ndelcollo, Me too!!!
Not sure how helpful 1-credit college courses are anyway, unless there is an extra spot in free electives, in which case I would tend to vote for one of the, er, actual free courses available, instead of paying for it when possible.

Awesome! Keep them coming! Of course, the REAL hook is if you can get your upper level courses evaluated for credit. I know that's challenging, but that allows your customers to stay with you for 4 years instead of 2!

Very valid point, and extremely wise from a longer-term business viewpoint, cookderosa!

I'm glad to see some additional courses, and hope that they can get UL recommendation from TESU, that would certainly be helpful. It's nice to have new ways to get Principles of Finance, Managerial Accounting, Advanced Accounting & Project Management. And nice to see a new Marketing course.
My only concern is, why bother with adding Strategic Human Resources that's only getting LL ACE-recommendation when you already have a Human Resources that's LL? A little bit of a waste of time in my opinion. It would be nice to get the UL ACE-recommendation.
