Big FYI re: Pierpont-to-WGU block transfer

[ss20ts]

Fair assumption with regard to my Pierpont credit, but no. Only 9 out of my required 60 (and 88 total accepted) credits at Pierpont were from Sophia. Most were from a previously unfinished associates degree from 1999, with the rest being a mix of AP exams from 1996, CLEP exams, and IT certifications. As far as I know w/ WGU, if the BoG degree has been conferred, they simply consider the degree, not the constituent courses. (They can still consider the courses if you send those transcripts/scores in too, of course.)

I'm interested in what you've learned re: WGU recently re-evaluating Sophia. Is that Sophia-specific or ACE altogether?

They've been reevaluating Sophia specifically. I haven't kept up on the chatter on the different social media channels because it no longer applies as I already have a couple of bachelor's degrees. It seemed to hit the IT college harder than the others. There were several students shocked that they didn't get transfer credit for some Sophia courses as the WGU website had not yet been updated.
