West Virginia Northern CC AAS BOG

[alleycat]

Anyone know if they'll accept FEMA? My oldest son has 9 FEMA on his ACE transcript. He actually has everything they want except for electives, which I think I can convince him to do through SL - I'm just working out the cost, so those 9 credits make a difference!

No FEMA credits are allowed.

A few days ago i requested my WVNCC transcripts to be sent to the military, at the time I did this I checked the NORTHERN NAVIGATOR. (13 February 2017)At this time it (degree process) was 30% completed.

I emailed my adviser (27 February 2017) telling them that I had received my diploma and thanking them for all their help.

Today (28 February 2017) I check the NORTHERN NAVIGATOR and see that it (degree process) is at 100%. Attached are images of it.
Not sure about most of the exceptions that were forced by my adviser, they were not there before.

GPA being under 2.0 : that's understandable since I transferred all my credits in.

Major requirements: not sure what I may have been missing, possibly since I hadn't taken any classes with WVNCC.

Computer science credit: No clue, I had sent in my application for graduation 17 November 2016 and completed the Information Systems & Computer Applications CLEP on 20 October 2016. What might have happened was that since the CLEP was not part of my initial evaluation when I first enrolled it might have been missed.

First-Year Seminar Success Strategies: This requirement is limited to students entering Northern as first-time freshmen.


Finally: I did not ask for anything to be waived or petition for anything. Nor did I hear anything about academic residency requirement being waived for military. Oh and I paid nothing.

I plan on taking CLEP College Comp next week, so that is 1 of the Comm. requirements. Can someone help me finish the rest of the WVNCC BOG degree plan using Straighterline, Study.com, and possibly Saylor? Big thanks in advance.

No Clep for Comp.

[KayV]

Here you go, varJosh. You could finish with Straighterline English Comp I and II, a Social Science (I put in Sociology or Anthropology because those two have a reputation for manageability), and 6 more courses of Anything.

Except for the English Comp, you could also complete these through Shmoop- all of it for ~$90 if you finish the seven courses in a month.

Good luck!

Would something from Shmoop fit Social Science (a history class?)

[KayV]

Yes, Shmoop Modern European History, American History I, and American History II would work. Since the BoG AAS requires Social Science and/ or Humanities, though, any of the literature classes would work as well. Indeed, you could take 2 literature classes and no social science.

Thanks a lot, KayV. This is great!

I have 100 credits in my ACE account and 18 from Patten, so if I send a transcript over and pay application and graduation fees I can get a AAS?
Is this for military only?
