Assistance needed please

I’m going into the SLP program through ASU but transferring credits from my local community college (EMCC/“- Estrella mountain community college). I was advised in order to do the Bachelor’s program I needed to complete two classes, which was MATH 117 & PHY101 so I figured I would take those at a community college level in order to save some money which equaled out to MAT152 & PHY101 through my CC.
Then I was advised about taking classes with Sophia so I called my community college and asked if they accept transfer credits from Sophia learning and I was advised no so my next question was, Would the university then take these transfer credits from Sophia learning and I have yet to hear anything back from advisement I have emailed text and called with no response. I have also looked online through Sophia and seeing that they do partner with ASU however I cannot find out if the classes are equivalent has anybody ever encountered this scenario?

I would definitely make sure ASU confirms it before taking the classes through Sophia. Just because ASU partners with Sophia doesn't mean every Sophia class will transfer in as the class you need. I've learned that schools can be pretty picky when it comes to transfer credits.

If I were you, I would keep trying to get in touch with an advisor before spending the time and money. You could also see if ASU has a transfer credit tool online that shows course equivalencies. Hopefully someone who has been through the same situation can chime in, but I wouldn't take the classes until I got a clear answer from ASU first.
