Sophia/WGU - AwardTour - 09-01-2018
I am going to email Sophia and WGU, but I do not expect a quick response because of the holiday weekend.
I was wondering if anyone had info on what can transfer from Sophia to WGU? Most of the pages at Sophia.org contain a transfer list to each school. For some reason the WGU page on Sophia's site is blank.
https://wgu.sophia.org/
?????
The last post in this thread suggests that a transfer guide was once visible at http://wgu.sophia.org

It's a little old, but it looks like it's been done before. WGU is pretty ACE friendly (I transferred in Project Management and Public Speaking from Study.com).

I appreciate the reply, but yes that reddit thread is a little old. According to an archived copy of the page from a few years ago Sophia did have a complete transfer guide at one point https://web.archive.org/web/20160422124457/https://wgu.sophia.org/
I just want to make sure that a recent change has not happened between Sophia and WGU.

WGU is pretty consistent about taking ACE (but not NCCRS) courses. But it's best to wait if you're not sure.

Hmm, I just noticed this WGU thread. Weird, I didn't catch it previously. WGU is a great option if TESU doesn't work for you, but I highly suggest sticking it out with TESU unless you are in the USA or authorized by WGU to do this outside of the US. Even though there are "ways around that", I suggest not going that route...

I'm looking to start my BS in Business - IT Management from WGU soon and was wondering if you could provide any insight about which Sophia courses you were - or weren't - able to transfer.

Here is what WGU's College of IT approved from Sophia on my eval. The Enrollment Counselor informed me that Sophia courses are still under review and some/all of this is subject to change but she couldn't say when or what. This info is good as of 7/10/20:
Sophia English Composition I = WGU English Composition I – C455
Sophia Introduction to Statistics = WGU Introduction to Probability and Statistics – C459
Sophia Art History I = WGU Introduction to Humanities – C100
Sophia Environmental Science = WGU Integrated Physical Sciences – C165
Sophia US History I = WGU Survey of United States History – C121
Sophia Introduction to Psychology = WGU Introduction to Psychology – C180
Sophia Microeconomics = WGU Microeconomics – C718
Sophia Macroeconomics = WGU Macroeconomics – C719
Sophia Algebra= WGU Applied Algebra – C957
Courses they would not accept into the IT/Business school:
Sophia Accounting
Sophia Project Management
Hope this helps!
