Criminal Justice Penn foster and the big 3?

Again, it depends. Some CJ courses will be assessed as applied professional. The rest will fall under the Social Sciences and probably applied as Psychology, Sociology or Political Science.

The syllabus, rather than the title, of a course will likely determine where that course is placed in the scheme of things. For example, a course called 'Private Security' might deal with the US legal requirements, general business administration and recruitment techniques and be evaluated as Applied Professional. Another course, also called 'Private Security', might concentrate on the emergence and commercialisation of non-governmental forces and their influence in failing states and be evaluated as Political Science.

If you have ACE-evaluated PF courses, EC might not give you UL credit for them but you should still get credit. Likewise there may be the option for non-ACE credit due to the 30 credit NA transfer cap. Might as well pay the $75 and see what an evaluation brings back when you are ready.
