Do you have to wait for your conferral before you can start AJU or could you start after receiving a letter stating that you completed your degree requirements from Excelsior?

I can start after Excelsior sends them a letter saying I have "met all requirements" for the bachelor of science degree. I just yesterday sent my request to Excelsior. I have communicated with both schools and it's a definite go. I'm all set!

Being mindful of wanting a degree from a regionally accredited school, I'm thinking of taking 15 credits at Andrew Jackson University, then transferring them to American Public University. They accept up to 15 graduate credit transfer credit from nationally accredited schools. Since they are both nationally and regionally accredited themselves.

Oh this is a great piece of information! I'm definitely doing my MPA with AJU but I'm also considering doing a MALS with Excelsior. However if it's cheaper with APU I may just transfer the credits from AJU and "launder" them into RA credits. Great tip!
