I am halfway to earning my AA with the University of Phoenix Online, has anyone been able to transfer to a CSU
My academic counselor keeps telling me they have regional accreditation, but does anyone know of any person being able to transfer to a California State University. My plan is to earn my AA and then transfer to a CSU.

They might . If you finish with your AA they might take it. I know alot of people that have tried to transfer credits towards their BA, other and universities wont take all the credits. Once they finished their BA, the university accepted that. Then continued to their graduate degrees on another campus.

U of P is regionally accredited, which means that their degrees are real and their credits are eligible to transfer to other universities and colleges. However, whether any particular class you take at U of P actually does transfer to your city university depends on two things, normally: 1) you getting a C or better in that class, and 2) that class being offered at the city university. Unis only accept transfer credits of classes that they themselves offer. So if you take some sort of medical technology class at U of P, and the college in your city (I’ll call it “City U” for short) doesn’t offer such a class, it won’t transfer. In addition, City U, like any uni, will look closely at the content of each class you’ve taken at U of P (or at any other college) to make sure the class really is the same as the one they teach at City U. If City U doesn’t feel that it is, the credit won’t transfer. So while you’re U of P credits are eligible to transfer, there’s always a risk that certain ones might not. But if you stick to the basics at U of P – Freshman English, college math, US history, etc. – you should be in pretty good shape re: transfer. U of P doesn’t have a good rep with employers, and certain employers will not hire U of P grads. Be aware of that. But if you really do transfer to City U, then it won’t matter if some of your credits were from U of P – no one will care; they only care where you graduated from. You could take classes at your local community college instead of at U of P. They’ll be a *lot* cheaper, and because the community college has a full understanding of what City U requires re: transfers, they’ll be able to give you real guidance on exactly which classes you should take at the community college in order to transfer to City U.
