What graduate schools have Excelsior graduates gotten into?

I'm going to be blunt. Your focus needs to become razor sharp. Eye on the prize as they say. You need to get your 90 THOUSAND dollars worth of credit into a bachelor's degree. A legitimate, accredited degree. Brands are for 18 year olds, just buy a hoodie and move on. Sorry, but you need to focus on what will get you working! Earn your remaining credits and squeeze every penny out of every credit.

A few things: AAS degrees are terminal, meaning not typically intended to transfer anywhere, so don't be shocked if the 60+ credits in that degree don't amount to much. *I have one too Your community college gen eds will all transfer. You'll be able to use CLEP and DSST for any gen ed deficiencies. Ask for help filling your major as cheaply as possible- everyone here will help.

I'm sorry, I'm just such a monumental tightwad (and I have 4 children) but if you can turn this into a positive- do you mind sharing how you go into so much debt earning 100/200 level credit? I'm not judging- please know that- I'm seriously hoping you can provide guidance for those who come here and might be able to avoid this situation. I have more credit than what's in my sig- my sig only lists my degrees. So, there are 3 other colleges I left out. I just did the math, and I've spent $42,000 give or take a few bucks. ($24k of that on my AOS two decades ago!)
