CS50 on EdX issues ACE credits?!
#3
The only information I can find about this is not about getting the ACE recommendation but getting credit through Charter Oak:

Quote:About Charter Oak State College Credit-Eligible Courses:

We're partnering with Charter Oak State College, Connecticut's public online college, to provide students with a unique opportunity to be awarded transferrable credit for work completed in selected edX courses. This partnership will give students from all backgrounds an affordable and flexible way to earn college credit, track their accomplishments and work toward a degree. Students who enroll in the Verified Certificate track and pass the course with an 65% or higher are eligible to receive Charter Oak State College credit. **
Credit details:
Number of credit hours for this course: 3 credit hours
_
Cost: $300 USD ($100 USD/Credit Hour) - pay for credit earned after passing the course with a 65%or better.
Eligibility:**_
  • Learner must enroll in the Verified Certificate option to be eligible for credit upon completion of the course.
  • Learner must abide to all course and academic integrity policies throughout the entire course.
  • Learner must receive a passing grade of a 65%or better in the course
ACE has approved several EdX courses or recomendation (see https://www.acenet.edu/National-Guide/Pa...0d3a33232a) but it doesn't look like EdX has created a way to actually record those in Credly.

They must have decided it didn't benefit them financially to grant ACE credits, which I think is shortsighted. I think they'd get much higher enrollment for these certificates if people could get ACE credits just by completing them, rather than having to pay hundreds extra to get a college to transcript them.

But hey, maybe that's part of why 2U is going bankrupt.
