cbrchris, I wonder if you've had any success with the Visual Basic .Net at Excelsior. The reason I'm asking is that ACE's evaluation is for Visual Basic (no mention of .NET). It is most likely an updated course and is most likely not evaluated. If you've just asked Excelsior if they'll take Visual Basic ACE course no. ICS-0164 they'll say yes, but is Penn Foster offering the same course, that's the question. You don't want to take the whole course before finding out that it won't work at EC. I've written to PF for confirmation.
Penn Foster has also stopped offering Visual C++ (my original choice) and has since replaced it with Visual C# (which is not ACE evaluated and thus cannot be transfered to EC).
I'm hoping the Visual Basic course works. I'm really not looking forward to taking an ICCP programming language exam.
