Advice for Future EMBA Candidate!
#1
Your Location: Flexible, USA
Your Age: 36
What kind of degree do you want?: a Business Degree from a prestigious university that will give me points for my future EMBA application.
E.G. transferring credits into an Ivy League school and finishing there.

Current Regional Accredited Credits: 24 Community college credits from 2006-2010 that I'd rather throw away.

School Name Total Credits: #
Class Name, Credits, Grade

Current ACE, CLEP, or NCCRS Credits: 0

Provider Total Credits: #
Class Name, Credits, Grade

Any certifications or military experience?
No, but I have had a succesful ecom startup, brand leadership, enterprise consulting, and agency work.

Currently thinking of routes like:
CLEP into Penn State World, Finish
Apply for EMBA Program in Dubai or an M7 after EA Test

Transfer credits into Upenn Online

Very location indepdent, US Citizen born in NY, spent a lot of my adult life in Asia, some in London. Just spent a year in Canada professionally.

@Aegy, Welcome to the board... Great initial post, it's great to provide a bit of info to get the ball rolling, but you missed the addendum! We're missing more than half the picture of variables that are part of the addendum, without it, we don't have a clear picture of your situation. Please update the thread with the details from here, we can further look into your scenario and provide options or a direction to go afterwards: https://www.degreeforum.net/mybb/Thread-...Area-works

You need to get your college transcripts sooner rather than later, most if not all institutions will have access to your previous studies info from the National Student Clearing House, they will not accept you into the institution without reviewing everything you have. Furthermore, unless you have academic forgiveness from that institution, it'll stick to your records... You can try to bump the GPA up by retaking the classes if you have a D or worse. I would focus on taking CBE classes to get a quick 'check the box' degree and then shoot for the MBA.

You might also consider the Georgetown BA in Liberal Studies; Business & Entrepreneurship is among the concentrations available.

I'd simmer down the Ivy League hopes from a pragmatic perspective...
