I DO have respect for Excelsior. My concern is that they will make things moreand more tight till they evolve into a regular college. There is a graduate of Excelsior Michael Gates who used FEMA credits through TESC and took it to the top and won. There may be special interests involved with FCC. If so then the seeming credibility of uping standards is circumvented
by seeming special interests. It disturbs me. A TESC FEMA credit IS a legit credit. If a student wants to load his credit bag with FEMA courses it reflects on a student NOT the school. A potential employer would look on the student
more critically than the school. The subjects a student chooses doesn't reflect on the school. FCC is much more expensive (although fairly cheap). You may disagree with me, thats fine, but to accept legit credits from a more expensive school and not from another touches a raw nerve with me. Making things more difficult doesn't make a school legit as opposed to a diploma mill. I'am not looking for handout. I would rather get TESC credits and spend the money on more expensive courses.
Perhaps some one will challenge this formally. It is unfortunate
