From the looks of things, they may or may not accept your previous undergraduate credits. It's hard to say, I would have backup options just in case, and you may want to again ask them again, just to make sure they would accept your RA Bachelors as is, indicate to them these are alternative credit transfers from ACE providers and link them to the ACE website.
Thank you for your advice. Yes, I am applying to multiple universities at the same time !

Michigan Tech accepts non-collegiate sources of credit but only for military training and credit-by-exam. Unless they specifically state that prerequisite courses must be from a regionally accredited college, Excelsior's policy on accepting non-collegiate sources of credit via ACE or NCCRS should have no bearing on their admissions decision. They are not considering your undergraduate credits for transfer to a doctoral program. Either your bachelor's and master's degrees meet their accreditation requirements or they don't.
