FEMA Independent Study online classes for military service with GED
#1
I know this has been asked, actually found the site through searching for hours. I have a GED, I am 22. I scored a 54 on my asvab, and 114 for my GT score, I want to go 11x, later on 75th Ranger Regiment. I have been a firefighter for two years, college is kind of hard for me at the moment, i just totaled my car, and moved to another area. I have one arrest, no conviction, no plea bargains, charges were withdrawn and rescinded. I have a strong military family. I need help from those who know what i need to do. I do not want to do a credit bank as i found that the army does not accept it. What is the easiest & fastest way to get CLEP or FEMA credits transferred to a college transcript so i can join, have been trying for 3 years, I am very smart, I believe i can make a difference in the military. I will take 24 FEMA classes so i can get in with advanced rank np. but how do i get a transcript without paying $2000 that MEPS will accept, accredited schools only thank you

Easiest, fastest is to take the FEMA and transcribe them through Frederick cc. 24 credits that way will run you about $1800. For that kind of money you could almost have a degree from charter oak though (AS).

FEMA will issue is own transcript for free, but if they won't accept it from a credit bank I doubt they will accept it from FEMA direct.

You could take the 24 or so FEMA, enroll at charter oak, transfer in the FEMA,finish the cornerstone and then have an official transcript with 30 or so credits....and be within shooting distance of that AS degree.

I'm always happy to complete the free application waiver for those applying to WGU (I get a free gift from WGU for this).  Just PM me your first/last name and a valid email so I can complete their form.

You should probably go ahead and share. Based on what I know about this forum, somebody here already knows whether or not what you're doing will work, and can save you from wasting your time.
