Twenty-Five Institutions to Participate in ACE Alternative Credit Project - ACE

ACE announced today that 25 colleges and universities are joining an alternative credit consortium as part of an innovative initiative to create a more flexible pathway toward a college degree for millions of nontraditional learners. The 25 institutions serving in this pilot project have agreed to accept all or most of the transfer credit sought by students who successfully complete courses that are part of a selected pool of about 100 low-cost or no-cost lower division general education online courses. These institutions also will help identify the sources, criteria and quality of the courses. http://www.acenet.edu/news-room/Pages/Twenty-Five-Institutions-to-Participate-in-ACE-Alternative-Credit-Project.aspx
