Columbia Southern Candidate For Regional Accrediation - harrypotter - 08-19-2022
SACS granted Columbia Southern University candidacy for accreditation. If they get it they'll be one of the most affordable RA schools around

For Master's degrees, maybe. But they only accept CLEPs and DSSTs; they don't appear to accept other forms of credit like Study.com or Sophia.

I hope they get it. They have a Master's Degree I've been wanting to do.

I wonder if this has any relation to Waldorf wanting to split off from them.

I think it's better when schools become accredited. I hope they make it.

It's going to be a while for this process to go through as they've only submitted the application at the end of the year 2021...

Keep in mind that an upgrade in accreditation often comes with the school deciding that the new accreditation is worth more, and so we could see the price jump. This isn't a given, but it happens.

Has anyone tried to transfer a course from here to TESU before? Sergeants Association is offering a free class here, but there is no point if TESU won't take it. Not sure if general rules about NA credit change once somewhere is under RA review.
