ACE Credit
Credit to kickstart your degree from NLU.
About the ACE Credit
At National Louis University (NLU) students with demanding jobs, family and full-time responsibilities are the rule, not the exception. NLU is here to support students who have started careers or families to come back to school and finish their education. Distinctive in design and delivery, our programs are created to fit your busy schedule.
In that spirit, NLU is proud to partner with the American Council on Education (ACE) to create flexible pathways to degree attainment for nontraditional learners. ACE vets courses and providers of alternative credit, to which NLU has articulated course equivalence information related to accepted credit.
