Like Pierpont, apparently.

Pierpont isn't in the Clearinghouse, I just looked them up.
But, let your conscience be your guide lol.

I found Pierpont in the Clearinghouse.  Just double checked, and they were still listed there. 

I spoke with Nancy Parks about the Clearinghouse, and she told me that they report to the Clearinghouse, but unfortunately, only if you earned credits at Pierpont.

That was the part I was cracking a joke about.

Did you earn any Pierpont credit? Just curious.

I'm not sure why anyone who already is on the verge of getting 2 AA's would bother with an AAS. It's a generic degree, and is practically meaningless on it's own, unless it's specialized (like some sort of technical cert that you need for a specific job), or you want to transfer to a school that will accept a block transfer from an AAS and this will clear that hurdle for you. Put alongside an AA (or two), and with no specialization, it's completely meaningless. It's worth less than your AA's. And the fact that you can't get transcripts means that it wouldn't even grant you a waiver for that block transfer.

Also, while it may be technically "free", it's not free to send your transcripts. And you'll be waiting a good long while to get it, from what people on here have reported in the last few months.

So, I'll reiterate that this is a meaningless degree for you, and you probably shouldn't even waste your time. And if you create more work for the school by applying for something that you're clearly not eligible for (if they report to the clearinghouse, they may also request from the clearinghouse), then you're kind of screwing the people who actually need this degree. Why give them more reason to take this away from people who need it, by creating more work from someone who doesn't need it at all?

I just don't get it I guess.
