@ibra999, In addition to the info provided by LevelUP, it may be best for you to provide us more details.  Most Masters programs have requirements, if you complete the SNHU, you have 30 graded credits which they'll look at for admissions including other info such as your certs, experience, volunteering, etc.

SNHU is a good choice.  Follow this template and the last post addendum, if I guess correctly, it seems you're wanting to do a quick SNHU and then get into a semi competitive masters for immigration/student visa purposes... Link: https://www.degreeforum.net/mybb/Forum-D...ing-Advice

That is exactly what I am trying to do, you read my mind. I am transferring to SNHU from another university because I can't attend in person anymore, my gpa also happens to be 2.4 (i have above average grades in cs related courses tho). I just wanna get over with this bachelor and get accepted into masters program in Ontario, Canada, preferably a 2 year program in order to qualify for a 3 year work permit, but it's not the end of the world as there are other immigration pathways.

I am wondering if someone transferred 90 credits to SNHU and went to obtain a masters in cs in Canada or anywhere without any problems. I am worried about the transfer credits from sohpia and others. Thank you.

Are you working in CS or IT now? The more practical experience you have, the less your GPA and school you graduate from will matter.

A masters program doesn't "transfer" your undergrad credits, they simply require that you have a bachelors, and look at your experience, grades, etc... to make a decision about whether they will admit you. There's two situations where the use of alternative credits might be of issue. The first is when the admission dept calculates your GPA. If you have a lot of Credit/No Credit courses, you might not have as many graded courses as they would like.

The second would be if they have specific course prerequisites. It's possible they could decide that an alternative credit course does not fulfill them.

The only way to be sure of those two concerns is to ask the program in question. What we've seen here is that this is not often a problem, so if you are flexible about where you go for your masters, it's usually nothing to worry about. If, however, you have a specific program you wish to enter, it's best to contact the admissions dept now, and discuss your plans with them.

I do not work, I am currently a student, I also happen to live in Syria which is a bit of a hell hole at the moment, and our economy is dead. Canada by far has the easiest route to immigration and tuition fees are relatively reasonable, but it seems like entry to their masters program is more competitive than the U.S as they don't have as many universities as USA

I meant that would having a lot of transfer credits from my the previous university in my bachelor, where I did not do very well (2.4 gpa, decent cs relataed courses grades) affect my chances of admission into a masters program as a transfer credit shows up as a "T" on SNHU transcript. according to the admission department of snhu my gpa resets when I transfer there and if I do well in my last 30 credits that would be my new gpa. It is just a matter of the "T" in my transcript in my 3rd year specifically that is worrying me. I noticed some masters program look at your last 2 years + your gpa.
