Hi all, I have lurked a bit gathering info and wanted to thank everyone for their contributions over the years.
My story is that I had an AS and ended up dropping out of a pretty good university about a decade ago due to financial issues (I was having to work FT while living on campus and it was tough). I have wanted to finish my degree for a long time and this site finally got me pumped to make it happen.
I looked at a couple of schools and applied to see how credits would transfer. I have settled on Excelsior College (university). Turns out I was closer to graduating than I remember and here is the MAP from EC:

I am waiting for them to answer my question about taking/transferring over two study.com courses soon:
For my UL elective needs?
For my UL Ethics Need:
Question being.. Is this looking good or am I missing something? I do hope to use the EC degree to get into a masters program eventually, likely at Oregon State or somewhere else that has an environmental science or natural resource program. How successful have people been at getting into masters programs after obtaining an EC degree? It may help that I have worked in that field for about 15 years now.
Thanks!
