It was discussed so I figure I'll make a topic on this. A lot of people have gone on from the Big 3 and entered graduate school. As people post, I'll do my best to update this initial post with the list. (I am one of the people who did get into grad school and thus my time is a bit limited but I'll do my best here).

I am so happy to get to add to this thread! I know that we have all asked this question. The Big 3 have lists about graduate school admissions on their websites, but I've always wondered about how non-traditional the undergraduate degrees were. I have also noticed that many members of this forum seem to choose non-traditional graduate school programs, too. My BS is very non-traditional and I have been accepted to the graduate school of my choice. I'll be starting the online version of the degree program soon.

It's not like the grad program I attended was all that competitive.
Angelo State University Master of Security Studies concentration in Regional Studies - TESC BA in Social Science
After my masters: Texas State University PhD in Criminal Justice. This program is competitive, but I believe my GRE score and graduate GPA had a lot to do with my acceptance.

Well American Public University of course, but perhaps soon University of Nebraska-Kearney (both History). I understand from the dept. chairman a lot of APU students transfer over to UNK and I think my grades from APU helped a lot. I should know for sure later this year...

COSC has a list of graduate schools that have accepted their students on their website. I didn't know if you were trying to make it more personal to the forum or if you wanted that information.
Don't miss out on something great just because it might also be difficult.

I was accepted to Villanova University for Masters in Software Engineering. I graduated from Excelsior in March 2014. I have 90 transfer-in credits with letter grades and the remaining 30 credits I earned through ACE, Straighterline and Penfosters. Thank you all for your wonderful support!
Thanks

I finished COSC last May and am in the Masters e-Learning program at FHSU. I'm obsessed with the program- it's excellent. I was also accepted into ECU's MA in English, Technical & Professional Communication, but I opted for FHSU because there was no GRE req, they offer late enrollment, and their courses fees are comparable to ECU in-state, Approx $650/3hr credit.
And...I think I can I think I can I think I can!!
