Maybe split that into 3... Many people have come across schools that have closed due to unknown reasons, you need to look past that and get the ball rolling. Focusing on that alone for now works, but I would rather multi-task and not just wait on that to happen.
Again, I respectfully disagree. It takes very little time to find those transcripts, and then you can plan your degree around them. Knowing where you are from the start is very important to not wasting time/money taking courses you don't need. If you have 60cr and all of them count for the GE at EU for example, you could start getting all of your credits for UL and start/finish a degree there in a few months. OTOH, if you have 6cr in something that's a Free Elective, you then start thinking of letting those go and starting over somewhere like UMPI.
But knowing where you are NOW is a smart way to go about planning your degree.
I second this. I attended a school that closed. All I had to do was google to find out who was holding the transcripts. In this case, it was Parchment. Then, I ordered my transcripts like normal. Once you find out who is holding the transcripts, which could probably be done with a quick Google search, it's very likely the transcripts can be ordered online. Even if it has to be done by fax or email, it does not take long. Why thow away 1.5 years' worth of credits over something that can be done in less than 30 minutes?
Not to mention there's a good chance they will ultimately have to find them in order to graduate, anyway
