My transcript is a prime example of exceptions, even after appeals. I transferred in just over 40 recent RA B&M credits for the evaluation in the area - the prefixes they assigned them seemed to have little to do with what they ended up placing in Gen Ed. Really odd choices imo of what they did allow vs what they did not.
