Looks like they allow you to transfer up to 90 credits for a BA, but they charge you $17 per course you transfer. So for 90 credits that's $510. Not the end of the world but a decent chunk for a "free" university.

On the plus side it says evaluation of transfer credits is free so I guess you can see before you pay.

I don't have the most Sophia credits in the world but if you'll give me a couple of days I'll transfer them over and tell you what they come in as

lol, also at the end of each course you take from them you have to pay them $120 for an "assessment" fee before they give you credit for it. So why call it tuition free?

Also they've accepted me without even asking me for my SSN. Never seen that before.

Just because the school isn't charging tuition does not mean there aren't other expenses. A 4 grand bachelors is still a huge game changer, especially if they achieve regional accreditation.

Why do they need a social security number if FAFSA isn't necessary? As long as they positively identify you before conferring a degree I don't see what the problem. Also, you haven't been formally accepted until you pass the foundations courses.
