Penn Foster College Ace Credit Expirations

[dfrecore]

Last October 2020, I started this thread notifying everyone the ACE equivalent college credit for several Penn Foster College courses had expired back in August of 2020. I had e-mailed Penn Foster asking about the expirations and received this reply.

"Yes, we are in the midst of the review process for them already."

Sincerely,

As of today after viewing the ACE National Guide website it seems for sure Penn Foster has given up maintaining ACE credit as more and more courses continue to expire.

They have 88 current courses!  Why would you think they're giving up ACE status?  They are one of the course providers that has has more courses than almost everyone else for many years - and they get rid of outdated courses, and add new ones on a very regular basis.  They have lots of UL as well.  If it wasn't for cost, I would think they'd be one of the preferred providers on this forum (I took a course there, and didn't mind it at all - actually thought I learned something).  I think some people would especially like that it isn't based on a single exam as many of the other course providers are; and you can go back and resubmit all of the exams for higher grades as well (except the final exam I think). Also, none of my exams were proctored.
