Prerequisite and credit transfer question
#1
Hello all,

I'm in the process of satisfying general education requirements at a community college where I plan to take an AAS degree program. So far I have satisfied just about every GenEd requirement for the program except for two. The two remaining classes are Accounting I and Business Math.

Here's the situation, to be able to enroll in those classes, I needed to pass an introductory algebra course, which I ultimately failed (the instructor was lousy and didn't seem interested in helping people understand the material). I'm also working towards an online, self-paced bachelor's degree at an out of state, regionally accredited university. I will be taking business math and accounting at that school instead of the community college.

Once I complete those credits, I plan to transfer them to the community college. The community college said they will accept those credits as long as they're not ACE credits. Part of the reason I'm taking the remaining classes at the other school is to a) work towards the bachelor's degree and b) bypass the community college's introductory algebra prerequisite. Are there any problems I could run into when it's time for me to submit my application for the AAS program at the community college? I will have the business math and accounting credits transferred in long before the application deadline in November, however, I wonder if the F in introductory algebra will come back to haunt me? My only concern is them making me retake the algebra course before letting me move forward. In my mind, they shouldn't care about the failed algebra class if I complete the two other classes elsewhere. What's everyone's take on this?

Just for clarification, the introductory algebra course is considered "developmental", meaning that it won't affect my GPA one way or another.
