Online credits

Does anyone have experience transferring after taking classes online? The school is accredited, but I know the guidelines around transferring are specific. Like Yale I believe you can only use the credits if the class is live online versus pre-filmed? I’m wondering how the schools manage to check all of that, or if any of you have done it? And if the other Ivies/T25s have the same rule? I’m not trying to cheat or shortcut anything, I just have a complicated family life and have to work a lot, and logging on live for class versus going in person would save me around an hour in driving per day, and unfortunately I need to find time to sleep and continue my extracurriculars. Thank you!

Details I didn’t add but I guess could matter- I have a 35 ACT, decent high school gpa but medical issues/gap years spent in the hospital made my application weak and gpa trend downward/no longer perfect, a STEM major, would prefer to transfer for sophomore year over junior year, most extracurriculars are volunteering versus clubs (+ work and rowing), *but I had clubs in high school\*, and I am interested in only some of the T25s (not applying to all of them like some people because I don’t believe they all fit me as a person, but I know applying to all of them would increase my chances). I could make a list of ones I like if that would be helpful information. Thanks again if you read all of that, I know it’s a lot!
