Getting the run around from local colleges

Are any of your credits from any of the local colleges? This is a very important detail. Brick and mortar schools typically require that you complete one fourth of your credits at the school granting the degree. Different schools may require slightly more or slightly less hours than one fourth. My local community colleges require 60 hours for an associate's degree with 18 hours being from the degree granting school. My local state university requires 120 hours for a bachelor's degree with no less than 30 hours taken from them.

Excelsior, Thomas Edison, and Charter Oak don't require that you complete one fourth of your hours with them.

I'm a former student at two of those colleges. I had 8 hours with the one school as a transient student and I think 15 hours at the other as a first time student. I did not fail or make Ds in the classes they are asking me to take over. I did take those classes at other schools though. Those two schools are asking me to take all sorts of classes over again such as english composition 2, a literature sequence and the one wants me to take my history sequence over again. That is on top of various humanities classes and one science class for the school I took 15 hours at.


I never attended the third school I applied to. They are pretty much giving me credit for everything except art history. So they are asking me to take one humanities class, speech and I guess I will need 3 more classes to meet the 15 hours in residence. Sadly, I can't get anyone to tell what three classes I can take. I would like to take Calculus 1 and 2 over again since I plan on going back to university to finish a bachelors in mathematics. Once I've taken a humanities class and speech I will have met the requirements for my degree so I'm worried that I will not be eligible for aid for the other three classes. I tried speaking to the registrar about this and she blew me off. She didn't answer a single question I had and was as rude as can be. No doubt because she couldn't answer my questions.
