Sophia Course Transfer - RizP - 09-15-2020

I am needing to transfer only SOME of the courses I have taken at Sophia. I tried parchment exchange, but they transfer everything! All I need is a place to transfer selected courses.

use ACE just only add the classes you want

There is no way to pick and choose which classes to transfer. Depending on the school, you can ask them to ignore certain classes but the school will get the full list of what you have in ACE.

Can I ask why you would "need" to only transfer some of your Sophia courses?

Well I only need 11 courses transferred so in ACE credit, I only selected those courses for transfer. I called Sophia and they said that ACE would do it. I have submitted the courses; do you know how long it will take ACE to do their part?

Sure! You see, I'm going to get my Certified Public Accountant licenses, and to do so, I need 150 hours vs. the regular 120. I already took those extra 30 hours back when sophia was free. The college I'm attending(Upper Iowa University) only accepts 78 hours of transfer. So I don't need all those 10 extra courses transferred. I need to get some more of the required courses that I need to still complete and have them transferred instead of the extra 10 courses. If you have any more questions, I'd be glad to answer them.

If having all 150 hours on a college transcript will work for your licensure, I would suggest you call UIU and ask that the Sophia courses in excess of what you need for your degree program be added to your UIU transcript "below the line", meaning that they are not applicable to your degree program.
