I'll take a crack at this. I am assuming that these are credits that were awarded to you from from your "ECE" international evaluation. I am also assuming that they are regular credits not quarter credits.

If the English composition was a College Written English class, I believe Excelsior would accept 3 credits towards the Written English requirement. The other 3 would go to the general Arts and Sciences. Taking Freshman composition on top of that at Excelsior would get you nothing.

I also believe that lines 2,4,6,7,9 would go for the general arts and sciences, 30 credits worth.

The economics courses are at question. You will most likely be required to get course descriptions for the courses you have taken; by Excelsior or whatever other college you go to. They should at least cover general electives, but you can do a little homework on this yourself, by comparing the course descriptions of what you've taken and the courses offered at the college you are thinking of attending. If they have a lot of overlap you have a good case, if not then Clep is a "fast and furious" option that I've taken and encourage.

The other 12 credits of optional credits should qualify for general electives as long as they are not vocational, phys ed, or remedial classes. There may be other restrictions, but this is all I've heard of.

If you still have a strong reason to go to Baker, I understand. You have to believe in what you are doing. I went to Excelsior for a couple of reasons, but I strongly considered CSOC and TESC also.

Good luck,
Eric


2. Completion of two years of undergraduate work.
GPA 4.00
  1. English Composition 6.00 A
  2. Moral philosophy 6.00 A
  3. Economics 1 6.00 A
  4. Political science 6.00 A
  5. Optional subject 1 6.00 A
  6. Natural Science 6.00 A
  7. British History 6.00 A
  8. Economics 2 6.00 A
  9. Political Science 2 6.00 A
  10. optional subject 2 6.00 A
All the courses listed are for lower level. Total 60 credits.

Any input on how any college would interpret this would be appreciated. Also Baker college is giving me credits towards my bachelor instead of applying these 60 credits towards an Associate. Does that make sense.
Just to recap Bakers is giving me 50 experential credits towards an Associate. They want me to do 40 more to complete the AS. These 60 credits have been applied towards the BBA.
Here is the breakup
So 220-90=130
130-60= 70

So they want me to complete 70 quater hours with them at $185/ hour.
Just over $12,000.

I want to explore my options of getting a Bachelors FAST and furious . I can also consider other majors.
I have recently cleared my FRESHMAN COMP CLEP which was a requirement with baker.
Next on my agenda were Intro psychology and macroeconomics, but I don't want to take exams that may not be needed by the other colleges

Please advise. Thanks
