The fact that Excelsior (who accept tons of military/vocational credits) graduates make more $$$ than most brick and mortar University educated graduates speaks poor of the B&M model. That's why my office could care less about where one graduates from. Give a B&M $100,000+ for a piece of paper and they may have a good sports team, but the student will be a fast food qualified skill level graduate?

I bet these 81 received a ton of progressive military credits. They are proven leaders and will do much more in the future!
It's early I need some coffee at Starbucks from my Oregon graduate barista.hilarious

TrailRunr Wrote:Military credits aren't progressive. Military credits are a scam on the taxpayer. Do you ever wonder why University of Phoenix is so friendly with military credits? It's not because they are progressive.
Why do you think there are overpriced for-profit schools and fake non-profits barely downrange from large bases such as in San Diego? Entice those soldiers with college credits for military experience in exchange for federal and military money from taxpayers. What does military experience have to do with business, IT, economics, health professions, general education requirements, etc? Nothing. It's irrelevant. That's why military credits don't really help you graduate outside of the mills. Many schools have an aversion to accepting ANY vocational credits, so they won't take military even for free electives. That's not an anti-military thing.
