Looks like they MIGHT be open to it:
Quote:Credit may also be awarded for satisfactory completion of training programs, based on recommendations of the American Council on Education and the National Program on non-Collegiate Sponsored Instruction. The award of credit is subject to review and approval of appropriate UAF faculty.

I think that while MANY colleges will not accept alternative credit towards their own degrees, once you have a BA/BS, that whole thing goes out the window. You are now trying to get into a program with a minimum standard met, and they don't necessarily look at how you earned the degree - not that they don't look at all, or that none do, just that once that minimum standard is met, they take other things into consideration when you're applying for a Master's degree.

but we're talking about specific pre-req courses for the grad program, not just having a Bachelors. They may still be picky about those pre-reqs coming from ACE.

University of Texas at Tyler has an online AACSB accredited MBA. I was accepted a few weeks ago and I'm not even done with my BS from COSC yet. I am currently in the capstone course, but was accepted/offered a GRE waiver because my GPA is above 3.25. It's also a fairly cheap MBA as well. I start it June 28th.

Thank you so much! This has been a fantastic community; I really love the motivation and support that this place shares. When I first joined this community, I hadn't even completed my BS degree. If you told me 5 years ago that I'd be starting my MBA now I wouldn't have believed a word of it.
Thank you all.

Luckily I've had some life changes since then. I'm back in a position where I can work relatively normal hours (07.00 - 15.00) Monday through Friday.
