I'm now seriously considering going the Excelsior or Thomas Edison route to finish my degree (holding jr. level credits at southern il university).

Knowing there are many people on this board going that way I wanted to ask a question. Has anyone here been accepted (or denied) entrance into a masters program at good university?

I'm not talking harvard or yale of course... I'm talking a university the calibre of University of Illinois, Purdue University or Boston University.

My concern is that these colleges simply won't accept students into their graduate program if the degree from one of these other colleges.

Anyone out there got some experience in this matter?
