If EGCC and/or UMPI finds out about your prior degree without you disclosing it, you could potentially have your degree(s) revoked. This could also include the loss of any credits you've earned since your first Associate degree. Which could potentially get you in hot water with your union. Much easier to get this sorted out now.
I strongly suspect that, at least for the Bachelor's degree, the union won't care about anything but the award date. A substantial percentage of students think that they must get an Associate first, then a Bachelor's degree in the future. If the union restricted the pay bump to just people who earned 100% of their degree while a member, with absolutely no prior credit, they might as well not have such a policy for raises in the first place. Almost nobody would qualify.
Sorry for all the confusion. I just checked my prior emails with staff at EGCC and I actually did submit my AA transcripts. I had thought I only submitted my high-school transcripts. Looks like I should be in the clear.
And yeah, you're right that I should dig in more. Maybe I could use some of those classes from my first AA to fill up some transferable credits for UMPI.
