Any certifications or military experience? 900- hour electrical & advanced electrical Diploma accredited by the ACCSC (Accrediting  Commission of Career Schools and Colleges // a Nationally Recognized agency.... not sure how to go about getting credits for this so I have not submitted this anywhere despite me working 5 years in electrical and now 7 Years in IT field ! =( I also have done a 900- hour medical Assisting course that qualifies me to take NHA exams in Medical Assisting , Phlebotomy , EKG I am hoping to leverage the MA diploma and Electrical/AdvElectrical Diplomas for college credit somewhere at some point. I plan to first receive Degree from Pierpont then Umpi and see if I can use these to take a few classes towards a Nursing Programme. however I do not have much info on how that would work out so I have not dived further into this idea as of yet!

back to Pierpoint!

so I sent my all of transcripts to PierPont and so far they have only processed my credly page however they didnt give me full credits for most of this. I have been emailing them wondering if it was a mistake on their part but its been a week and no response yet. what do you think may have happened? I did sent my credly transcript around 3 different times as the badges weren't all there. but they audited on 08/03 and included most of my badges however did not apply the correct credits for TEEX and missed my GOOGLe Project Management credits I have also applied

I thought I was looking at a total of 16 RA credits from BMCC and 95-97 credits from ACE (credly) however I am still waiting on Pierpont to let me know whats going on. I have also sent my credly and BMCC transcript as well as Resume to Umpi for admissions

Pierpont tend to be pretty slow lately on the RA credit processing from what was recently reported. It looks like you are good on the total credits (need 60 credits for the BOG) and once your RA credits are processed, you should be OK with the following areas:

Communications - ENG111 Composition and Rhetoric I (3)
Computer Literacy - DAT10 Computer Fundamentals (3)

It looks like you still need the following for Pierpont, unless you have additional credits not listed here - you can complete these on Sophia:
-Mathematics/Science - can be met with college algebra, stats, environmental science and/or human biology - pick 2 classes
-Social Sciences - can be met with macroeconomics, US History I or II, psychology or sociology

You have more than enough technical credits for an Info Systems concentration at Pierpont. Email the registrar about the missing credits from your Pierpont email, you may want to include screenshots of the missing credits and their ACE recommendations on your Credly transcript.

NOTE: I am also awaiting to take the free JSU 3 credit course as well as Clackamus' LIB101 Introduction to Library Research course for another 4 credits

[jg_nuy]

Just the Google project management and a couple of missing TEEX credits. Not sure they really make a difference, as what you need is your RA credits processes so the GPA appears and it looks like you need to do the couple of additional classes from Sophia or whichever other source you prefer. The JSU and Clackamas classes won't affect that.

Are you reaching out from your Pierpont email address?

[doctorTorres]

yes I am indeed I did receive an email back from Lisa but she is however not incharge of this . I emailed everyone recently a few hours ago and tagged Lisa along the email since she was responsive but the last time she did say she would reach out to David 2 days ago

[doctorTorres]

turns out ROAR has all my 129 credits not degree works & Lisa confirmed they need a transcript from a school I attended took classes @ but did not complete credits in.

You’re not an unusual case.  I’m not sure what is going on with the program, or Pierpont in general.  They don’t respond to anything and are not in a hurry to process transcripts.  I sent them my transcripts 50 days ago, and they haven’t processed or replied to email or phone calls since.
