Super cool transfer tool - Franklin University
#4
RANSOMSOUL Wrote:Awesome share/tool! Outside of this great resource, what are some of the reasons Franklin is an option?

Average age of a student is 28, so they are very much in the "degree completion" lane.

In my case, They have an articulation agreement with our local community college to accept any AAS in full and they are a SL partner school with very generous transfer policies. So, I have at least 1 son looking at their Logistics degree. Based on his dual enrollment and SL credit, I think he'll be walking in with just about 90 credits and can do the rest (his major) online. Now, the AAS full transfer agreement policy asks more questions than it solves, I'm scheduling an apt with the dean of academic advising. I believe, that his dual enrollment logistics courses will serve as his techinical credit, and he won't need the full AAS. I hope that's the case, because I have no interest in climbing that mountain.
But, if his technical credit is through dual enrollment (free) plus his SL credit fills all his gen eds, he is looking at starting his major right at high school graduation. Should be a year or so.
Edit to add: they accept EVERY SL credit, however, it doesn't all fit, and it doesn't always count like you'd expect. Since they don't accept "any" ACE class, there are holes in his evaluation - like marketing or speech.
My son is just starting 11th grade, so I have a lot of time to work this puzzle, but my goal is all gen eds + the technical core by end of high school. I think I can do it, I just need to get the dean on the phone.
