Straighterline Hides Negative Transfer Experiences

[Ace_King]

Also, this happened to me. I asked an adviser if Straighterline would be accepted at my old community college and they said I would have to be in the military for any ACE credit to be accepted. This happened a few months ago btw. About a few weeks ago, I went back to the college, sat down with one of the Academic Deans, explained him the situation along with my ACE transcript and Penn Foster transcript in hand and he said he would have no problem accepting it. He also stated in the policy that Broward College accepts DETC credits into transfer (which I didn't know) and ACE would be reviewed with the Educational Department but he was going to give me the green light on my Straighterline credits. Broward College accepted my DETC credits and are on the way of accepting my Straighterline credits on ACE. So I suggest sitting down with an academic dean or some one high in the department and explain the situation. I got a "NO!" At first and they shut the doors in my face the first time, the next time came around it was a different result.

I'll still be graduating with my bachelors at TESC, but just wanted my credits to transfer to my old community college. You never know, I might just do a certificate with them down in the road years from now.
