A list of grad schools that have accepted graduates of the Big 3.

i just finished my first semester in the Masters of Occupational Therapy program at CSUDH. This is a very competitive program that accepts between 10 and 15 percent of applicants based primarily on GPA and GRE. Rubric based admission programs are not able to distinguish easily between the big three and any other regionally acredited undergraduate program. Because rubrics focus strictly on numbers and not the institution generating those numbers, the CSU system is mostly blind to the school you went to. I was not asked about my degree at my interview and it never came up in any other conversation with the department staff. As a bonus, a few of my prerequisites for the MSOT program were actually ECE exams and not actual courses, but the way Excelsior transcripts their credit by exam program it looks like you took a course. So, put the California State University system on the list that has accepted a big three graduate. I do not know if the same can be said of the UC system, I doubt it though.

One caveat, I earned a second bachelors from Excelsior because my first from TESC had no GPA attached to it. Getting into competitive programs that highly value a GPA will be very difficult with a GPA free degree from TESC
