Just an extra little data point here in terms of COSC and grades on transcripts. I opened a COSC credit registry last April. I started sending in all of my transcripts - which is A LOT OF TRANSCRIPTS. Haha. Anyway, I sent in the transcripts direct from each provider. The transcripts from Davar and Onlinedegree.com posted with letter grades. The Sophia transcript posted as pass/fail. And then COSC got annoyed and told me to stop sending in transcripts. Haha.
I really only signed up because I did a massive FEMA credit push during the Covid lockdown and posted 60 FEMA credits before COSC stopped transcripting them. I did kind of misunderstand COSC's registry. They really don't post any credits from other colleges. This is unlike the Excelsior and TESU transcripts which do include some, but not all, credits earned at other colleges. For example, Excelsior and TESU might not post credits that they feel are continuing education credit hours. COSC's registry is just for alternative credit sources. I am sure that this set up is different if a person is attempting a degree at COSC. In that situation, credit from other colleges would, presumably, transfer in to the COSC transcript.
I do have until the end of this month to send in more credits to COSC. COSC did not seem to grasp that Study.com and Saylor have NCCRS credits that don't post to an ACE transcript. I am going to send those in again and see if they post grades. But I am a little bit skeptical.
