Interesting thing about Athabasca and other Canadian Universities that I'm familiar with. Intro courses are numbered in the 200s and 2nd to 4th year courses are numbered in the 300s and 400s. Courses in the 100s are high school level. An American 200 level course would be at the same level as a Canadian 300 level course. Whether it would be recognized as such - who knows?
Athabasca's Bachelor of General Studies is a 3 year degree which may have limited acceptance in the US. There were and probably still are bachelors degrees in Canada earned with 2 years work. Some universities would grant a 3 year bachelors degree for 2 years of pre-med plus the 1st year of medical school or for 2 years of pre-law plus the first year of law school. It saves wasting 2 extra years earning useless degrees no-one cares about.
