Arizona State University (ASU) will be launching a part time and online ABA approved Juris Doctorate program. Based on cost it seems to be aligned with or a bit cheaper per year than alternative options since at South Texas College of Law, Southwestern, etc.

Howdy 

Quick question.  I have already earned my BLS with a marketing minor but just did a what if scenario and realized I have already completed the requirements for my BAdmin major.  Do I have to enroll to be able to get it or can I just request it as I have completed all of the requirements.

Any help is greatly appreciated

I check out the ACE National Guide time-to-time and I stumbled upon The University of Louisville Digital Transformation Center (DTC) page:

"housed within the Office of Research and Innovation, is advancing digital equity and workforce readiness by expanding access to technology, digital literacy, and industry-recognized credentials. In partnership with Microsoft, Adobe, IBM, Google, and LinkedIn Learning, the DTC provides innovative training programs in areas such as IT certification, digital literacy, and, most notably, cybersecurity.

The Cybersecurity Workforce Program stands as a flagship initiative, offering flexible, modular learning pathways that accommodate learners at every stage—from those new to the field to seasoned professionals seeking advanced specialization. The program provides several options for professional development, including shorter bundles of 3–6 modules, intermediate tracks of up to 8 modules, or the full program of 23 modules. To ensure real-world application, the program incorporates industry-specific use cases in healthcare and logistics, along with specialized learning modules in areas such as artificial intelligence, forensics, and cryptography. This approach prepares learners for both immediate entry-level employment and long-term career growth through professional development in one of the nation’s most critical and fast-growing sectors".

From what I see, there are a lot of credits to be gained from this.

Does anyone have any experience with this? Seems like this is only recent with the start dates indicating ACE recommendation as of May 1st:

I also tried looking for what it costs, but I didn't find any information on it. Guess I'll have to apply for more information and see what the associate costs are.

I searched for this degree program on the Yourpace page, but couldn't find any details about this degree. I did find the below page which appears to be for their on-campus program, but has the same name as the one listed on the Yourpace graduate application. I'm guessing it's the same thing, but it's not clear to me. Can anyone confirm this?

Like seriously, University of New Jersey - Trenton is right there.  So is Trenton University, Trenton State, Edison University, Edison State University (just drop the Thomas), Edison institute of Technology, New Jersey State, New Jersey A&M.

Thomas Edison State University just sounds so much less legitimate then it is, but I guess at least its not Rutgers Global.

Hello All, 

I am going for a BS In CIS. I recently completed the Google Project Management Professional Certificate on coursera. 

I was able to successfully transfer them in as I listed them below. 

However I was told this cannot apply to my CIS degree? I sent a follow-up, because I think the advisor may have been confused. 

This was the first reply I got to my request: 

" The project management courses you mentioned cannot apply anywhere in your degree other than free electives. They cannot be used in your computer information systems section"

I'm asking and if there is a way to appeal, and also confirming with them that I am trying to put these into Professional Business Requirements section, not  computer information systems section. 

Anyone have advice?

Hey everyone! I saw someone mention that ETAMU actually pulled in grades from StraighterLine and that those grades counted toward their GPA. I’ve honestly never heard of that before — I thought StraighterLine credits usually transfer as “Pass” only.
Does anyone know if ETAMU still does this? I’ll be starting next term and just want to make sure how it works. If it really affects GPA, that sounds like a nice way to give it a little boost! ?
Thanks in advance for any info or personal experience! ?

Amity University is an Indian university gets mentioned every once in a while on this board because it is WASC-accredited and offers a bunch of distance programs for relatively cheap. But I'm wondering if anyone here has actually attended. If I remember correctly, in the past there were issues because even though teaching was online, tests had to be taken at test centers in India. Has that changed in recent years? Has anyone from a U.S.-type educational system successfully been admitted? (Even for MA programs, they require foreign students to provide proof of high school education not with a diploma, but with a O-Level or and A-Level certificate or equivalent, which I have never heard of being available in the U.S.)

Hello everyone,
I'm a long-time lurker and have learned a lot from this community. I've gathered my 138 ACE credits and am ready to start my degree journey, but I've hit a significant roadblock and would appreciate your advice.
My primary challenge is the high school transcript requirement for US universities. I graduated 13 years ago from a high school in a developing country that has since been permanently closed down. I have my physical diploma and the last three years of my transcripts in my possession (in both the local language and English), but there is absolutely no way for the school to send them directly to a university or an evaluation service.
Here's what I've tried so far:

• University of the People: They evaluated my credits and approved 48 for transfer, which was much lower than the 90 I was hoping for.
  
• Nexford University: I had a difficult experience with their admissions. They gave me this feedback: "As for his Credly credentials, courses from Sophia and ACE-recommended credits can be transferred, normally Registrar team are the best team to further determine which courses can be transferred to the BBA program from these certificates. If he wish to proceed with this, he will need to submit his application and secure his official transcripts from coursera and sophia (not from credly) as they are the issuer." Ultimately, they told me that their university was not a good fit for me.
  

1. Are there any regionally accredited universities that might waive the "direct-from-high-school" transcript requirement for an adult international student who already has 138 ACE credits?
   
2. Is there a low-cost way to get my physical high school documents evaluated by a NACES member that does not require the direct-send method, given my school is permanently closed?
   
3. Are there any other fast and affordable, regionally accredited options I might have missed that are known to be flexible with unique situations like mine?
