Roadmap for New Excelsior College Students
arhanley Wrote:I have a question..

I have an AA in Mortuary Science (approx 80 credits), plus I have about 58-60 credits from a previous mortuary school that was denied accreditation. I got Southern New Hampshire University to accept those credits 58-60 credits and put them onto a transcript so they are "valid". But now I am trying to get my BA/BS in just about anything that allows me to use up as many of my credits as possible. So my question is, does my AA count towards my BA/BS or just the 58-60 credits I have? Most BA/BS programs are around 120 credits if I am not mistaken? If someone could help me I would greatly appreciate it!

Thanks,
Ashley

Did you get a reply to this? It seems like you've not logged in a while either. Anyways, if you or others are wondering, here's what I believe.
Your AA in Mortuary Science mostly comprise of lower level courses, if not, all the credits you have obtained are lower level.

If it transfers over to a university, you would have your first 60 credits done for the most part, there may be some courses that will be acceptable for the prerequisites or requisites of a BA/BS, you should have at least 30 upper level credits to be on safe side, some schools only require 18-24 UL in AOS.
