Excelsior BSLA - Upper Level Credits

[davewill]

The answer is "sort of" and "It really doesn't matter". All the transferred credits (110, if they accept them all) will appear on your transcript, plus whatever courses you add to finish the degree. I haven't seen an Excelsior transcript, but generally, a transcript doesn't specify which credits are actually being used towards the degree. It just lists all the credits and says you have earned the degree.

If they don't apply the credits the way you like, you can ask them to make a change. Usually, it's because you think a course should be equivalent to one thing, but they claim it isn't, although sometimes it can be because they've counted it in one category, but you'd rather use it in another and take a different course to fulfill that category.

If they say they can't or don't agree that a course fulfills a requirement you think it should, you can appeal a decision to the registrar, providing documentation that you think proves your case.
