HELP !ACE and NCCRS credits are not recognized by US graduate schools
#4
Generally speaking, a graduate program looks at two things, that you have a valid bachelor's degree, and that you have coursework that fulfills any prerequisites the program requires. I would not be surprised at all if a grad program refused to accept alt credit for their prerequisites, but I would be surprised if they cared about the other credits. Of course, any individual program can be as picky as they wish.

The answer to your problem is going to be applying to other programs. We know that many people have successfully gone on to master's and doctorate programs with bachelor's degrees full of alt credit, so this is not a widespread problem.
