Charter Oak Questions - UptonSinclair - 06-18-2013
Does anyone know if there is a age limit on credits. I have a bunch of credits from my time in the Air Force in the 90's.
How many upper level credits do they require and do they designate which area the credits have to apply? (liberal arts or concentration)
- Answered this by digging a little deeper 15 in concentration and 15 in liberal arts (correct me if I am wrong)

Well, it's 18 credits (minimal) in Concentration. You must have 30 UL credits overall. Remember that the Capstone is 3 UL in concentration credits.
I did 18 UL Organizational Leadership (mostly business credits + Capstone), 9 UL Health credits for a second concentration, and 3 elective UL credits.
There are LL credits that went with both concentrations...I believe it was 36 credits overall in the primary concentration (lower level business) plus 24 overall in the secondary (Paramedic and EMT credits for me)...but don't hold me to that.

It would be awesome if I could focus most of my upper level in my concentration instead of 21 credits of liberal arts at Excelsior. I applied today and sent in transcripts, so we shall see what they come up with. I am thinking BS with a concentration in technology studies. It would fit well with all of my electrical credits from the Air Force days.

I suspect that's quite doable, dependent of course on the transfer credit being UL. Gonna be cheaper too!
