Hello- Brief overview-Help Needed

Welcome! I completed the BSHS in management at Excelsior. You can test out of all your gen-eds, although you may already those covered. You can test out of two core required classes with ECE's the rest are online classes through EC. They do have a new BSHS / MBA bridge which would allow you to complete your MBA in one year after you complete the BSHS. Their MBA isn't accredited, which might be a problem for some employers, but probably not for the Federal Govt. I didn't get a chance to attend graduation for any of my EC degrees. My understanding is that I can walk at any time if I choose. As for abandoning your current program it would depend on how many credits you have and how quickly you can complete your BSHS. If you have spent 3 years on an AA and can finish your BS in another year, that may be your best bet, since it may take you another year to finish 5 more classes at the CC. It depends on how many classes you can take at a time and now fast you want to finish. It is very hard to complete online classes and test out at the same time. I can certainly attest to that! As for schools allowing transfer of grad level credits, each school has different rules. Most won't accept credits that were earned prior to obtaining your bachelor's degree. So I encourage you to look into the requirements for the schools you are interested in for grad school. Good luck!
