Though I didn't ask Patten about this, but one of my friends currently with Patten and about to complete his degree confirmed to me that before his enrollment, he did ask the enrollment advisor whether Patten degree mentions that the education was online. He clearly recalled his advisor telling him that there was no difference between degrees earned online and on-campus and that they (Patten) do not mention that degrees or credits were earned online.
To my surprise, when my transcripts arrived in the mail today, Patten University Online was conspicuously stated on it. Am attaching parts of the transcript to this post so those who might have issues with their transcript stating "online" would know and probably go elsewhere for their competency degree.
My TESC diploma and transcript did not mention online and even though it didn't have GPA, I feel much satisfied than Patten. Am not complaining, just letting those who might not want any mention of "online" stated on their diploma and transcript know.
Of course I would've contacted Patten about this, but my experience over the past 3 to 4 months have shown me that Patten appears not to care about its students...

Wow, they've really changed up their transcripts. Mine didn't indictate online courses, but it also has their old bible school logo on it, haha.
They really run everything in a bizarre way over there.

Also credits transferred were not listed on the transcript. I understand they might not include grades or GPA for transferred credits, but didn't know only credits earned at Patten were gonna be listed with mention of total number of transferred credits...

All schools should only list courses taken with them, and this is also what the GPA is based on. I have several transcripts and every one of them only has a list of the courses I've taken there, as well as my GPA at that institution.

That makes sense, thankfully TESU lists even transferred credits in their transcript. I'm glad they do, otherwise my transcript would only show one course!
TESC listed my foreign courses as well as ACE credits. Of course they did not base their GPA on them, but they sure look good on the transcript...
