Sophia to California College

[dfrecore]

Most of the CA community colleges accept ACE credits from a number of providers, but here's the tricky part: for any course that you're transferring in as part of a core or major requirement, you'll need to get the department head to sign off on that course.  So basically, you'd provide the syllabus for, say, a Sophia psych course to the head of psych at the community college. If s/he signs off, and that school accepts ACEs (most do), then you should be able to get the credit accepted.

Just because you get credit at a CA CC (and I'm willing to bet that 90% won't take anything outside of CLEP/DSST), you still won't be able to transfer the credits to a CSU or UC.  They specifically state that you can't transfer DSST exams to CSU/UC's.

The CA CC's, while a good transfer system to the CSU/UC system schools, are not "block transfers" - they will look at every course you bring in.
