ACE CREDIT College and University Network

[Eric]

I think if a person is enrolling in NA university they should check if their university had the classes evaluated by ACE.
As there is a long list of RA universities listed on ACE register that respect ACE recommendations and this in turn increases the chances to transfer credit to RA university.

For decades, colleges and universities have trusted ACE to provide reliable course equivalency information to facilitate credit award decisions.

Taking your training to a higher level—a college degree—begins when you use the ACE CREDIT College and University Network. Colleges and universities within the ACE CREDIT College and University Network are institutions that use ACE college credit recommendations for courses, apprenticeship programs, and examinations.

All the listed courses are ACE evaluated and many of the CREDIT network universities respect these evaluations.

I see in the list schools such as UC Berkeley, many state universities all RA.
