I know they accept all ACE credits but I can't always tell where they fit in the degree. For ex, Sophia Intro to Info Systems says on ACE that it is a LL Intro to IT but Charter Oak responded to my inquiry that they will accept it as an IT elective. But I guess even the "official" transfer lists are not completely accurate.
I asked COSC about the Humanities 101 course and, on the list at Study, it shows as a Humanities credit but they said it would also fulfill the Gen Ed of Literature/Fine Arts.
I'm a planner by nature and wish I could have it all figured out perfectly ahead of time. lol We can only do our best with help of this forum!
That's why posting here / asking here is useful. It's a real-time application of the course to a transcript.
The problem with the lists, are that they have to be updated each year by both parties, and that would be true for every ACE provider. Nobody does that- they don't even do that for CLEP - I can find a dozen colleges that still have Freshman Composition on their accepted CLEP list (exam retired in 2016) and I'm pretty sure the Straighterline list hasn't been updated in as many years.
The history of how a college acts is a good predictor of how it will act, so collectively, I think you can get a good guess from people with maybe 80% certainty of how each course will come in at each of the Big 3. Until someone does it - then it will be posted - and you'll feel better than 80% confident. Hope that helps!!
