COSC New Policy - Transfer Credit Updated Info

[SteveFoerster]

How does the fact that they need to raise money every day justify solid college credit rejections? Why resort to this exclusionary method?  I don't need to work at a college to know that there is something odd about this line of reasoning. 

Maybe you do, because you're making an awful lot of uninformed guesses and treating them like facts.

It's true that people like us don't mean much revenue for them, but that doesn't mean this policy change relates to that. If all they wanted was more revenue, then it doesn't make sense that they didn't just require 30 credits be from Charter Oak itself, rather than continue to allow it to come from transfer, including TECEP and UExcel.

Other reasons than revenue that might have led to this change include pushback from NEASC-CIHE, a change in Connecticut's legislative or regulatory environment, or some other reason that wouldn't occur to you, me, or anyone else who doesn't work for the institution.

$50-100 each way + hotel costs is not cheap. At that point, you might as well just sign up for a regular college course.

Alright, you win. There are no testing centers outside of the US.

More accurate to say that if you're outside the U.S. it's worth checking to see whether there's one close by, but don't get your hopes up.
