ACE Credit explination

[smithgw]

ACE is a body that approves courses for college credit.  They are not a school (so no, you don't send transcripts to them).  They are also a credit-banking service, so when you take an ACE-approved course, you should add it to your ACE transcript (so yes, you should open a free account with them).

Once you take any ACE courses, and have them added to your ACE transcript, you can then send that ACE transcript to any schools that will accept it (just like a regular school transcript).

If you post the courses you've taken here, I can make a degree plan for you showing where your credits will most likely apply.  Separate them by school, put which type of school it is (CC, CCAF, or 4-yr school, and if it's semester or quarter based), and then list the courses including course #, course name, number of credits, and grade if less than a C.  Try to make it clear which type of numbering system the school uses (for instance if it's a CC that lists all courses as 0-99 as developmental, and 100-299 as regular courses; or if it's a 4-yr school that does the above plus 300-499 are Upper Level courses - it's good to know).

TESU will take about a month to do your eval, I can do it in about 10 minutes.

A few notes: While in the Air Force I had two Jobs. First was an Aircract Crew Chief ( Mechanic) and those credits are noted by the AMT designator. Second job was Communications-Computer Systems Controls and those credits are designated by the CRM, COM, and ELT courses. I also have an A+ for whatever that might be worth credit wise. As I mentioned in my previous post I never really did well in college, and was there only because I though I had to be, but was an honor grad in my communications course in the air force which was far more difficult. I am committed now to getting this done, and want to say thanks in advance for your help. This forum is awesome!
