And yes, you're also going to have resort to others that may know more... it's hard to determine at times what courses will come in as what equivalent at the school. There are many course numbers and names, it's the course content that distinguishes them between each, and the schools may look at the equivalency differently.
Depending on the school you want to attend, you need to look at two places. The provider site usually would have an equivalency table, and the school will sometimes show an equivalency table as well for some course providers. I explained this very briefly in the Beginners guide sticky, but it's very hard to grasp these concepts of transfer especially when so many schools and providers exist. The best/only way, is to look at the school and their equivalency charts.
So, if you're going to TESU for example. These two courses do not duplicate.

Thanks.
Okay so the CLEP is Intro to Computers and Sophia is Computer Science.
It is confusing, because on top of everything else, even though they transfer in as different courses, it's possible that either could fulfill the computer requirement. Even if that isn't possible in this case. And I'd prefer to take courses in my AOS (and area/s of interest, really) than a bunch of similar computer courses, or whatever other unnecessary subjects.
EDIT:
Additional question... How do I find what Sophia transfers in to other schools? They don't have a menu or anything. How did you find that TESU transfer page?
