Study.com Transfer to SUNY - Empire State College - professorduck - 11-12-2016
Has anyone been able to transfer their courses to SUNY - Empire State College. I know on their website they list what they accept from the Alternative Credit Project
Alternative Credit Project | Degree Planning and Academic Review | SUNY Empire State College
But I do not see any information on just ACE reviewed courses. I have some from NFA. I wanted to take Technical Writing and Advanced Business Operations from Study.com since they are Upper Level
I enjoyed ESC because the last course I was taking from them I was able to complete it in about 2 months by just writing papers for a few sections from the Ethics In Business Book. I finished before end of term which was nice but then I had to wait to start a new course.
My goal is to have the maximum number of UL to transfer in.
At the moment I'm still un-decided whether to finish at ESC or start WGU for their BS-IT. I like WGU because its competency based and they transfer in IT certs but I have to take a few classes outside of WGU either at a B&M or Sophia that I know I wouldn't able to do on my own. WGU requires a science with a lab and ESC doesn't offer labs so I was thinking Geology from University of ND open enrollment and I have to find a way to complete College Algebra is not a strong point at all, even with Khan Academy. I can really only do it if I have the formula in front of me. So far I enjoy Sophia's course with Environmental Science and may take more from them.

I was able to locate an answer. Study.com courses were NCCRS reviewed recently
Study.Com | NCCRS
Since its run by SUNY and SUNY Empire takes NCCRS credits I am all set! I am unable to find any information about NCCRS on Study.com's website so this must still be too new since the courses appear to have been evaluated Oct 2016

I know this thread is a year old, but I'm curious to know if your Study.com credits transferred to Empire State College. Do you happen to know if Shmoop transfers as well? Thanks for the update!

I actually haven't completed my list of courses to take before I transfer them all somewhere. They should take NCCRS without any issue since its part of SUNY. I moved SUNY down on my list since you can only transfer in 93 credits the rest have to be taken at ESC and I only have 2 classes with them from 05. It is hard to turn down NYS free college tuition but then that locks me into living in NY for so many years.
