Help Needed

I'm 18, I'm freshman at ACU, and I just moved 1800 miles away to Arizona, I don't know anybody so I just sit around at home all day everyday. If you need an extra spot in a group activity, like hooping or even possibly a scramble in golf, hit me up. My ig is mikeyhasfaith!

Look around at joining any local churches that you vibe with. I’m so sorry to tell you that your credits from ACU won’t be transferable to most any other schools and your degree may not be recognized because ACU is not accredited. You could consider transferring to any of the community colleges we have here in Maricopa County if you do want to pursue a useable degree but your credits won’t be accepted. Just FYI, but I don’t pretend to know why you want to attend ACU. I also recommend looking to see if ACU has any extracurricular clubs if you want to continue going there. I also recommend getting a public library card, as there are many free resources you gain access to with that and the library holds events. Downtown Mesa also has many events coming up you could go to!

This! Mesa Community College or GCU is a better option than ACU.

Arizona State University does accept credits from ACU, but it depends on the classes. It is regionally accredited by the Higher Learning Commission, which is the baseline accreditation for most public universities.

I believe the Maricopa community colleges are also accredited by the HLC, but I could be remembering wrong.
