If I take Straighterline classes, will any of thier partner schools list my straighterline classes on thier transcript as thier own? Pharmcas will only accept courses from regionally accred originating school.

Thanks!

I don't know, because I don't think that's come up here. You could start at the top of their list of schools and just start calling. You could ask how it appears on a transcript for concerns about future transferrability and see what they say. If you do, please share the answers here, that's a good question. In addition, you'll want to ask the partner school if they issue a letter grade or "credit" because if they issue it as "credit" your school will know it's a transfer.

Why would this be any different from laundering SL classes? I thought it was already pretty well established that you can't do this at any of the SL partners.

Because of the nuances of this situation, it isn't credit laundering, it's meeting a prereq. If the OP is applying to pharm college, not using a partner school to try and launder for transfer elsewhere (which won't work for a letter grade). In this case, the pharm process is going to take a transcript directly from a SL partner school and base his/her candidacy off of that. So, if the partner school awards actual letter-graded credit, it will work. If they award credit in transfer or as CL, then it won't.
