This has been a really interesting topic; to be transparent, I'm not looking to hide anything. I did, however, find it interesting that this is something schools sometimes take into consideration.
Example of if you have a Bachelor's Degree:
• Harvard College will not accept you, according to the admissions person I spoke to
• Excelsior University has a "2nd Degree" policy where a student must have at least 30 credits from their university if they already have a Bachelor's Degree completed and are working on their 2nd one. However, for your first, they will transfer up to 113 credits for some, meaning you only need to finish 7 credits vs. the 30.
However, most schools I've talked to do not have a rule about this. I found it interesting, and of course, I question how much it could be validated.
