I was wondering if gaining a bachelor degree under this route would have any affect on graduate school admission from non profit/ state or private schools with somwhat good/ good reputation (I’m looking into applying to MBA programs - mostly AACSB accredited ones). Would this be seen/accepted as any other RA bachelor?
- Side question: I’m also transferring into excelsior from Ashworth, although I was told over the phone by an admission rep that they’ve taken Ashworth credits before, I’m still a little hesitant that they won’t take my large load of credit after an official evaluation, has anyone had any experience with this specific transfer?

In general, I would say no, but a really competitive program might be more snobbish than others. Certainly, plenty of other people here have gained admittance to MBA programs. MBA programs are generally more concerned with business experience since the majority of MBA candidates have such experience.
