ACE Credit Registry Change? Transcripts Services Ending

[Murdockb]

I just checked my previous ACE Transcript, it was viewed the same day.
However, my academic records were only updated at TESU a week later.

You're right. I see now that my daughter's was viewed the next day, too.

I should have included more info in my previous post.  

I applied to TESU today and want to send my ACE transcript soon, before ACE stops their electronic transcript service.  The email I received after applying to TESU indicated it would take 3 to 5 business days to prior to getting an admission decision.  I also emailed the registrar at TESU a week ago and asked if I sent my transcript now but didn't apply immediately, would they hold it for a week or two, if I haven't been formally admitted to the university.  The registrar never answered.  

I've also been talking with a TESU admission specialist who said the electronic transcript service offered by ACE is not ending soon, only the paper transcript service.  Just case there's a disconnect between TESU and ACE, I would like to send my ACE transcript before the end of the day on November 30.  I don't want the TESU registrar to discard my transcript because I haven't been formally admitted yet.

Yes, I should have done things sooner but I'm between jobs and counting every penny.

Advice?

I just found the quote below on TESU's website concerning sending your transcripts to TESU.  It's on this page if you want to read it. https://www.tesu.edu/current-students/send-transcripts

• "PROFESSIONAL TRAINING REVIEWED BY ACE (American Council on Education) and NCCRS (National CCRS)
  TESU also awards credit for professional training that has been reviewed by ACE and NCCRS. For more information about professional training please visit Professional Training Programs.
  TESU requires an official transcript for ACE-reviewed professional training, which as of November 2020, are provided through the Credly’s Acclaim Platform, and an official transcript from the credit-awarding organization for NCCRS-reviewed professional training."
  

Even though it appears TESU is now accepting Credly/Acclaim transcripts, I'd feel better about sending my electronic transcript from ACE since I have some older credits (ALEKS & TEEX) since I'm unsure if they can be listed on my Credly/Acclaim transcript.

Check the transcript status on the ACE page. It should tell you that it was sent and is waiting. You may not be able to check it after today but it'll probably get picked up by this afternoon. At least, TESU is usually quick to pick up the transcripts themselves. It just takes a while to evaluate them.

I am still finishing up some free Sophia classes. I am now on the absolutely final 15 day last resort extension. I finished one class on 11/28 and submitted it to my ACE transcript. Sophia approved the request and it was added to my ACE transcript this morning.

I also sent an ACE transcript to Strayer University on 11/25 and it was delivered, but not yet reviewed.

I also no longer see anything on the ACE transcript page about transcript services ending.

I've been searching the ACE website to see if they have an update on their electronic transcript service, as well, and have not found it.  Glad I'm not alone in this.

FWIW, I was a little concerned because I'm helping a relative who just completed a Sophia course on 11-27 and it wasn't showing up on ACE yet.  I've tried every way I can think of to get the official drop-dead date for ordering transcripts directly from ACE (including sending them a certified letter) with no luck.

Pierpont C&TC may very well accept ACE credits on Acclaim, but I didn't want to take any chances.

I did a live chat with Sophia staff and they approved the course credit on the spot, so I was able to order an ACE transcript immediately.  Just thought I'd share in case anyone else is in the same boat.

ALEKS had badges activate on Acclaim. But, their support said ACE will be handling the badges.

Should be interesting! Looks like ALEKS probably will renew their relationship with ACE too

ALEKS had badges activate on Sophia.

I don't understand.  Are you suggesting that Sophia is transcripting ALEKS credits somehow?

Typo on my end I corrected it

Looks like ACENet has thrown the switch.

Per my earlier post, I was able to get my transcript request in earlier today. But when I refreshed the Transcript page to see if the school had viewed the transcript yet, it just disappeared, along with all the account and login information. In its place is a page that tells you to get transcripts from Acclaim.
