Updates on Transfer Credits (Personal Experience)

After around 3 weeks of waiting for my Transfer Credits and escalating the matter to an Advisor/Supervisor, my Sophia credits have all been credited. I took 22 courses in Sophia and they were all credited towards my degree and didn't have to pay even for the 2 extra ones on top of the 20 they initially published.

Right now I'm trying to transfer some credits from Saylor. Previously, they asked for a transcript from Saylor since they did not accept the ACE document that was generated. I emailed Saylor to release a copy of the transcript which they handed in about a day or two.

If all the Saylor courses I proposed to be credited are approved, I will have 11 courses left to complete to fulfill the 120-credit requirement for graduation. I was thinking of doing 2 more courses at Study.com but decided I'll take all the 12 on UoPeople since the price difference is not that much and might be cheaper at UoPeople with financial aid.

Wishing everyone the best.

Let's Make A Difference.

I saw this opportunity when I paid my registration and I decided to make a small donation. I know it's almost negligible in the grand scheme of things but it can somehow help.

I encourage fellow students to do the same if you are able. I'm 39 so my educational goals are different, and UoPeople gave me this amazing chance to accomplish a dream. Let's be the change we want to see.

Happy Term 5 everyone.

I got some Financial Aid but the Amount on the Portal is still $160

I received an email confirming financial aid equivalent to $60.00/course applicable to the first 5 courses. However, as registrations opened yesterday, the course price I see on the platform is still $160.00.

Anyone have experienced this? Do I need to do some additional steps?

I just recently enrolled in UoPeople and working on some of the courses. I'm pursuing a BSBA degree.

I wanted to ensure that I take 75% of the classes elsewhere and I've done some on Saylor and will do some on Sophia. But I still have 18 courses listed on my learning path for UoP which I really want to trim to down to 10-13. Can you help me alternative platforms where I can take courses that will be accredited by UOP? Also I need a recommendation for a BSBA elective.

Thanks to all who will answer and wishing you all the best in your learning journey.

I just took the ACE Test (proctored) for BUS 205 (Business Law) and passed (barely). Here's my feedback.

The Saylor Course on BUS 205 is text heavy, but really gives you great foundation about the subject, and encourages you to really understand how the concepts apply to scenarios. The exam itself was really really difficult, but manageable. It was a good start to my UoPeople journey. Wishing everyone well.
