Okay, so I have a checkered educational past, having attended two B&M universities before dropping out. Twenty-odd years later, I'm finally finishing that bachelor's at Excelsior. The next step is grad school, which is essential for my career goals.
Every one of my target grad schools requires transcripts from all post-secondary institutions you've attended, and that includes schools from which you've taken classes as a non-degree-seeking student.
At this point, this means I'll have to submit transcripts from the two B&Ms, Excelsior, and Penn Foster. By the time I finish, Fort Hays will definitely be on the list and I may take a CCE or two through Ohio University.
For those of you who went from EC/TESC/COSC to grad school, did you encounter admissions committees that were concerned about your unconventional pursuit of the BA and the plethora of transcripts you've had to submit? The programs I'm looking at are all state universities and likely aren't as accustomed to non-traditional students as places like WGU, Walden, and the like are.
