Hello everyone,
First I want to say thanks so much for all the info already posted. I can say my head is spinning now
. I spent 2 years at Penn Foster and was planning to transfer to another college / university to get a 4 year from regionally accredited school. All my classes are in ACE now and I have been accepted to some colleges / universities. I was thinking to continue with Penn until I can get to 90 credits and join CSU - Global or Upper Iowa and get the other 30 credits (10 classes) and be done with it. As you all know that's $10K+ for 30 credits. I see lots of information here on how some are just taking classes at different places and applying to one of the 3 most popular online with colleges and getting degrees with low cost classes and much faster.
How do I know which class can apply outside of Penn Foster or with in Penn to a specific degree with example: Excelsior College for their Bachelor of Science in Business (General)
I have attached a spreadsheet with details on what I have.
I would need help to identifying what's missing and where to take it. How do you map this list with a degree at specific college? Are academic advisors willing to work with someone like me knowing most of credits are coming from outside?
I know that Excelsior charges yearly fee if you are not taking 12 credits with them. I am assuming many wait until they have all of the classes ready and inside ACE or other institution and just apply with all credit pay the fees (or take a class or two) and graduate?
What does UL or SL stand for?
Thanks so much for your help.
