How does a Study.com grade transfer? - catlady - 09-08-2022
How does a Study.com grade transfer over with the College Accelerator membership?
For example, I got a 93 in a Study.com course that I am transferring to TESU - does it transfer as a Pass/Fail or with a letter grade?
I'm working my way thru a second Study.com course and just found myself wondering.

You get CR for credit. The transcript doesn't show a letter grade.

Thank you. I was wondering if I had to retake things to gain 2-4 points so this is very helpful to know.

You only need a 70% to pass, and all courses come in as Pass or Fail (CR or nothing).

All alternative credit providers will be pass/fail when transferring credit to TESU, only courses from colleges and universities will come in with an external letter grade. Even though 70% is the minimum you need, you may want to shoot for 80% or higher just in case you want to go to another institution such as COSC and/or UMass Global, they need 80% and 81.5% respectively. If you're going for TESU/UMPI or anything else that just requires a pass, then shoot for the pass instead.

Some grad schools will also look at Study.com transcripts to add those into your GPA.

This. Try to do as well as you can for possible future grad school. On the other hand, if all you can get is a basic pass, try not to worry too much. There are a lot of grad programs out there and a lot of them don't care about grades for alt credits sources. You only need worry if you're hoping to get into some of the more competitive programs out there.
