Regionally accredited college accepting online credit transfer
#49
FYI I merged the two threads together since they are basically the same topic and same OP.

I think COSC credit registry is created just for individuals like you:

Thanks so much !!! I will do some more research. Thanks again for your help!!

Check out the TESU and Excelsior versions as well. They all basically operate the same way, but pricing and other benefits may suggest one is better than the others depending on your needs.

If you are still interested in pursuing the TECEP on Federal Taxation it may be better for you to use the TESU version to make things more straightforward.

If I can't get an official transcript from a RA schoold for my study.com credits, I just wasted a lot of money on this.Sad

The TECEP will give you an official transcript showing the TECEP has been taken at TESU. Your Study.com credits will not show, or if they do, they will show as transfer credits, not part of the official TESU transcript.

No, you don't have to pay a residency waiver fee if you're a non-degree seeking student. Even for those seeing a degree, you only pay that at graduation time.

As mentioned, the credit bank option sounds like what you're asking for. I'm not sure if it will work for what you need but its the closest thing. It depends on how much of a stickler they are for the credits being issued by an RA school vs. appearing on a transcript issued by an RA school. In either case, the transcript will also show where all credits were issued. No legit college will represent courses taken at Study.com as coming from them. That would probably be a violation of their accreditation at the worst and unethical at best.

Also keep in mind that Study.com is not an accredited college or academic institution. Their credits are only recommended by the American Council on Education (ACE) as being equivalent to college-level credits. Some colleges, like TESU/COSC/Excelsior/WGU/etc., accept the ACE recommendations and allow such coursework to be used to substitute for their own college courses to support a degree from their school. But the Study.com courses are not college courses and are not creditworthy on their own.

So if the certification requires RA credits, you must get them from an RA school – alternatives like Study.com or Straighterline or CLEP will probably not work. If they say they will accept non-accredited coursework on a transcript from an RA school, then the credit bank transcript may work. However, you may need to verify to make sure they understand what you're asking them to accept if you go with the credit banking transcript.

When you complete a degree, the college validates/guarantees that the credits you used meet the requirements of their degree as part of the final degree audit. All credits used towards the degree will appear on your final official transcript. Looking back at your older posts, this sounds like the path that your contact at the MA Accountancy exam suggested. However, I don't know if this needs to be a 4-year degree, so an AA may not work. It also sounds like they require specific courses, so hopefully you accounted for that. Either way, if someone were to look, the final degree transcript will still show where all credits were originally issued, but that may not matter for your purposes.
