Too many people end up surprised when their credits won't transfer to many colleges or their degrees don't qualify them for licensure. I wrote this article for another website.

For anyone interested in law enforcement in Texas, having an NA degree can be useless in many cases. Otherwise, NA vs. RA doesn't matter to private employers or the federal government in most cases. It's also important to note that programmatic accreditation is often required for certain types of licenses. Some programmatic accreditors won't even accredit American schools with national accreditation. Some foreign countries won't recognize NA degrees.
What a wonderful article! Thank you for including me in the success stories! I hope there will be many more!
