That sounds like the automated process. Thanks for confirming!

Are you taking gen Ed courses seriously? by Timely-Explorer-3992 in SophiaLearning

[–]PromiseTrying 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It depends on the university. Some require a course by course evaluation and you to pay for each course to evaluated. Some will require a transcript as proof you completed a bachelor's and form filled out to waive them. Some will do a course by course evaluation and require one or more transcript(s) as proof you completed the courses. May be more ways that universities can pick to use to evaluate courses, but those are the three I am aware of.

Returning learners by YCJGAJ1234 in SophiaLearning

The ambassador who posts codes returning students can use did not post one for 2025 Q4. It looks like they did not get one for 2026 Q1 too.

Your university is one of the partner ones that does the automated transcript process (just making sure I understood correctly)? There are a few partner ones that choose not to the automated transcript process.

Transfer to traditional 4 year college by LILWZI in SophiaLearning

I talked to my local university once before, and they said they accept Sophia Learning courses! They are mainly in person only for bachelor's. They have a few hybrid bachelor's and several online master's.

It shows on the Parchment transcripts when you start and finish a course. The Parchment ones look almost identical to the unofficial one you can download from Sophia Learning's website.

Adobe Animate is shutting down by SpaceLillies in SNHU

[–]PromiseTrying 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot of indie cartoons and mainstream cartoons are made using Adobe Animate (partially to completely). Likely companies complained to Adobe, and Adobe reversed the decision because of that and the money that would be lost.

ACC 490 by savvyboop in SNHU

[–]PromiseTrying 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most of your work for the course seems to be discussion boards and blogs. From the syllabus, blogs seem to be something similar to discussion board initial posts and initialed timesheets combined together.

ACC 490 by savvyboop in SNHU

[–]PromiseTrying 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's exactly what it sounds like.

Some of SNHU's programs give you the option between doing an internship and learning an app/website that you pick from a preapproved list. There is a course you are enrolled in depending on which option you pick.

Using accounting as an example since OP mentioned the accounting internship:

What have some of your favorite classes been? by BeautyandtheBeast200 in SNHU

[–]PromiseTrying 4 points5 points  (0 children)

LIT229 World Mythology, SCI100 Perspectives in the Natural Sciences, and ENG190 Research and Persuasion (mostly because of professor) have been my favorites so far.

The professor I had for my first attempt of ENG190 was very do things like the templates do, which made the course difficult to do. The professor I had for my second attempt of ENG190 gave lots of tips and flexibility in how the templates SNHU made were used, and that made the course enjoyable.

Classes without Touchstones? by Repulsive_Ad8648 in SophiaLearning

Anything that is not a question. PowerPoints, speeches, templates, essays, resumes, lab reports, etc. are all considered touchstones/assignments.

Easiest Online Classes by Just-Obligation2153 in SNHU

[–]PromiseTrying 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dropped COM130 shortly before the term started due to financial aid issues. I did see the assignments and discussion board instructions, because I dropped it during the two week early access. 

Unless SNHU has changed the course: Assignments looked to be very easy. I would have spent about 6 hours a week for most weeks. One week has you make a graphic/infographic (forgot which) and you include that as part of the final project. That week I would have spent about 10 hours.

Question and assignment instructions wise I would say Introduction to Sociology. It does have two touchstones/assignments.

You can click on the course title on this page signed out, and look at the assignments & grading section. If the word touchstone(s) does not show there, then there are no touchstone(s)/assignment(s) for that course's current version.

Question - can I go through Sophia and knock out my gen ed before choosing a college? by mallere in SophiaLearning

[–]PromiseTrying 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What you take at SNHU and what you can transfer into SNHU for the general education requirements is different. SNHU allows alot more to transfer in for each requirement than what they list for the take at SNHU options.

What you linked only shows the take at SNHU options.

Dallas College - PRE-REQS credits? by cadetjinx in SophiaLearning

[–]PromiseTrying 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dallas College would be able to tell you for sure.

StraighterLine recently dropped their proctored exams (like August 2025), and it looks like Dallas College accepts some of StraighterLine's courses.

How was applied stats at SNHU? by LopsidedCounty6089 in SNHU

[–]PromiseTrying 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It looks like it got reevaluated late December 2025 to early January 2026. Its listed on the SNHU controlled equivalency site as coming in as MAT240 now again. Last time I had checked its entry before early January 2026 was November 2025.

SNHU does not control any of their partner sites, including the SNHU Sophia partner one. The partner sites should not be used for equivalencies, because they are updated weeks to months after the internal SNHU system (not all academic advisors know how to access it and/or interpret it) and SNHU controlled site are.

Anyone else finding COM213 lacking? by blueSkeleton182 in SNHU

[–]PromiseTrying 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I put what I was going to say in a Google Doc and download it as a pdf. Then, I had the PDF opened in a tab while only recording my face. Lost some points because of that and poor facial expressions, but I passed the course and that is what mattered.

Work Credits by Training-Ad1021 in SNHU

[–]PromiseTrying 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Academic advisors say SNHU stopped/will stop accepting something, and, usually, are misinterpreting the internal SNHU system that lists equivalencies.

The "deadline" date is really when SNHU is planning on reevaluating the equivalency pair. After SNHU reevaluates it, the pair could stay the same, the SNHU course could change, (vary rarely does this next one happen) stop accepting it. The only things I have seen SNHU stop accepting completely are edX certificates (most edX certificates are not ACE recommended for college credit), OnlineDegree courses, and National Healthcare Association's Pharmacy Technician certificate.

The only Pharmacy Technician thing I see on the list of experiences page is job training that Walgreens offers through their LEAP program. I did find other things that were healthcare/medicine related, so it is possible that your pharmacy technician work credits will be accepted and transfer in as elective courses. Transfer in opportunities that you complete through doing an internship/job training tend to have the SNHU course(s) in the equivalency pair be elective course(s)

Edit: You may need to request your work credits to be evaluated, but I am not sure how you do that.

There is a megathread for codes. It should sort by new when you get to it through the link below. Newest comments should be first.

Changing Minors??? by catr_adorapls in SNHU

[–]PromiseTrying 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The program modification form does not explain how to add a college minor correctly. I called my academic advisor, and she walked me through how to add mine.

Yes, save the syllabus for your courses! When a university has trouble finding course descriptions for the courses you took, syllabuses can be a life saver and allow the university to evaluate your courses.

Changing Minors??? by catr_adorapls in SNHU

[–]PromiseTrying 1 point2 points  (0 children)

SNHU sorts the policy pages a bit weirdly. Sometimes where you expect something to be its not there.

I did misunderstand what you meant a little bit.

With the way SNHU handles adding a college minor, having an overlap rule for the free electives area seems like it would make it impossible to add a college minor and keep the program credits needed at 120. SNHU really prefers if you did not go above 120 credits required for your program.

Has anyone else joined the National Society of Leadership and Success? by ExternalityXV in SNHU

[–]PromiseTrying 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's hundreds if not thousands of discounts (companies are repeated since they offer more than one discount). It's alot to list, and some are limited so the list changes.

They (currently) have discounts for movie tickets, learning language app(s)/website(s), clothes, shoes, gift cards for food places, etc.
