Thanks for the information. The low GPA originally came from the Unviersity where I have a 1.5 or so. I can replace 4 original F's I made and then need 4 classes, 2 with an A and 2 with a B to raise my GPA above a 2.0. This seems best case scenario, but I'm sure they use all classes and will send that to eventual Graduate School. None of my classes will be taken at TESC so I am assuming I won't have a GPA from there? I can always retake the classes I did terrible in at a community college but is that worth doing or is getting the degree the main objective? Will Graduate Schools look and see I took them ten years later at a CC and never applied them to a degree?
As for Graduate schools in mind I would love the program at FSU in MIS, but with a 2.0 GPA I have no shot. The online Masters in MIS at U or Arizona also looks nice, but it seems they don't accept credits for life experiences through ACE according to them which two of my credits might be from TESC, unless I can take something else to replace what's being used from my CCAF. As for other programs I'm not sure. Doesn't seem like a lot of options for us people who want a named University who had terrible years in school originally. I know have a degree will be beneficial, but my goal is eventual achieve a Masters in possibly MIS from a University, especially since my TESC degree won't have University next to it.
