Pierpont BOG AAS 2020

[BrianFallon]

My son completed the BOG AAS at Pierpont in December.  They do require 12 credits from a regionally accredited school, but he only took a 1 credit hour online class through them.  He wanted to take a 3 hour class, but it was so expensive, he decided to just take the 1 hr class in order to meet the requirement for the transcripts.  

He is very glad to have the degree, but please know the process was painful.  Nancy Parks was the only one who communicated with him and she is no longer in the job.  Mr. Beighley sent him his degree evaluation, but answered none of his other questions.  So, keep asking questions to whoever will answer you to get the information you need.  

Do NOT wait on them to contact, you.  Contact admissions if you don't hear anything.  He applied in July and it took him 2-3 months to be admitted officially and was only admitted in time to take an 8 week class because he kept asking about it.

Good luck with the process!

Dr Parks is back in the role as the program coordinator.  I concur with your assessment of Dr Parks vs. Deah Beighley's communication.  Also, Skye in the registrar's office is a gem.

All of my credits were accepted and I was given the option of having the degree conferred in August (no transcript though) or taking a one credit course with a December graduation.

Not a terribly bad program to be honest.
