Can I get courses added to a transcript for free? - evanmonast - 02-17-2025

Hey all, I am wondering if there is any school out there that would let me transfer a few Sophia courses and put them on a transcript for free. I am in the military and earning a few college credits helps me towards my next promotion. 
I have my BOG associates from Pierpont which was free at the time and my BAS from UMPI. If I “reapplied” to these schools could I then have them add 4 Sophia courses to my transcript without applying them toward a degree and having to pay for tuition? Or any other school? 
I only need the courses put on a transcript and I do not need them to actually be applied to any degree as I’ve already transferred and applied 90 credits in the past.

UMPI will allow you to do what you are seeking. Just reapply for another degree (BBA or BA in whatever) and send in the Credly transcript from those courses. I'd apply for Summer I 2025 to give Barbara plenty of time to add those courses to your transcript before you'd actually have to make a tuition payment.

Yes, I believe that's the best option, just like TESU, if you apply for a second program, you can add your additional ACE credits from Credly towards that second program. Then, you get the transcript you need, and you don't even have to start that second program, just leave it in the system as "Life Happens", you may not need to or want to start it.
