FEMA Credit and Excelsior

[snazzlefrag]

I remember reading on another board somewhere that an Excelsior student was *told* that, but when he pressed them, wrote letters, etc., they finally did accept them transcripted from TESC. That was only someone on a board, though. He could have been lying through his teeth for all I know. But he said that he did get it to work.

My guess is that he's telling the truth. If you're the squeaky wheel, you'll get the oil. If you put up enough of a stink about it, people will often give in. HOWEVER, this guy could have been the straw that broke the camel's back... He may have forced them to make a new "official" rule. I.e., they did not have an official position previously, so they let him use them since he put up a fight, but no one else can use the credits thereafter. I'll bet if you dug deep enough, you'd find out that one of those scenarios is the case.

Yes,

I read that thread too. He got something like 40 FEMA credits converted via a TESC credit bank account. 40 credits for $350. Ha ha!

This happened just this last August (2005). I would ask Toby to please confirm it with her superior, because they DEFINITELY did allow it a few months ago.
