I requested my transcripts from my associate degree with 50 credits be reviewed by WGU. My only hesitation about WGU is I would like to finish with a PhD and wonder if colleges would accept my education there. I'm looking at completing either the BS in Health Information Management or BS in Healthcare administration. I have an associate of applied science from 1990. Would like to complete the MBA and then get a doctorate level degree. I'm 58, so I am looking to wrap things up quickly! Love the content. Keep it coming!
The Pierpont B.O.G Assoicates is the fastest and cheapest. A. Do the ASU 1 credit course titled "Business Technology Fundamentals (CIS 194) it may take up to 6 Weeks to appear on your transcript as an ASU course. B) Because you will probably finish the ASU course in a week but have to wait 2 weeks to get the credit move on to blasting the Sophia Learning Credits. C) When you have completed all of the Sophia and your ASU course is officially listed apply for the B.O.G Associates at Pierpont. Depending on your timing and what term you do this you might have to wait a few months until you have your Associates.
Do you know what the transcript looks like? I’m asking for my HS junior. I don’t want her to do this next year and her college of choice doesn’t accept the credits.
@@kshirelle What I did was use this method for my associates degree and then the last 10 courses will be residential credit (residential meaning instructor led) at UMPI. Then on to applying to a Master's program. With that said. I would advise you to contact the college of interest for your daughter and ask them if there are restrictions on associate degrees that have been completed with ACE credits. The other option is to have your daughter complete classes/credits at UMPI (equivalent credits that would be completed in an Associates Degree and then transfer to the college of her choice.) You will save yourself a great deal of money by doing this. The UMPI Classes are online and instructor led which make them residential credits.
An associates degree can still get you paid more than someone with only a high school diploma. However, choosing between two candidates with comparable experience, the pay may not be significantly different.
There are definitely some "hackable" schools that are better than others. I'm a big fan of choosing programs that will get you accepted to just about anywhere. There are absolutely hackable programs that can get you into UCLA.
As long as the classes you took match the required classes for the major you're transferring into. Your "Generals" usually transfer over pretty well. But if you took random electives that have nothing to do with the new major, there's a chance you lose those.
@@nikhilchauhan2322 Associate Degree in Nursing. It’s like the basic RN degree. Most of the time hospitals will pay for your BSN once you finish your ADN if your willing to sign a contract for a few years
@@TooHonest4_Youalso Sonography associates and Radiology pay very well. In fact I’d rather do sonography over nursing since half my family are nurses and they’re miserable, over worked with too many patients at one time, hospitals that only care about their bottom line and all the legal liability nurses may encounter. Sonography is way lower stress and you work alone and pay is very comparable.
Tuition is going to depend on how fast you graduate, and the cost of the school per semester. Let's say they charge $3,500 per semester... and you graduate in 1 semester... You get the full degree for $3,500. I generally have most students shoot for less than $10k no matter what... but get that covered with scholarships and/or grants.

In the big picture, I agree that associate's degrees aren't that valuable. However, for certain career paths, they are worth it
An A.A.S. In Medical Lab Technician is very valuable. I’ve seen it parlayed to a 30 yr career where they retired with a pension
thanks for the video.

Yeah! Bro , it's a bullshit! F**c the college . It is too hard ! Get the money bag ! Dude ..
The difference between hourly associates and base level managers
WHY AREN'T PEOPLE TALKING ABOUT THIS!?!?!
Right?! Schools will never advertise this because it's not their path to the most money.
Sebron University has a Medical Coding Associate's Degree in 3 months
That's amazing! Thanks for sharing.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH sir
You're welcome!
Has this worked for anyone, any testaments? How is the workload to complete in 3 months?
Yes, it's worked for lots of people. I have success stories here... www.DegreeHackingAcademy.com
Will big schools like UCLA undermine an application if I graduated from a program like this?
There are definitely some "hackable" schools that are better than others. I'm a big fan of choosing programs that will get you accepted to just about anywhere. There are absolutely hackable programs that can get you into UCLA.
So what are the steps to do this? 5:08
Here's a video where I go through the steps... ua-cam.com/video/S2zEfcVAPIs/v-deo.html
@Ryan any walk through on UW flex associate ?
Can we talk about the higly cost of these degrees?
3k-4k USD
that's high?
I'd hate for you to see what a 4-year college charges.
If I’ve already worked towards an associates at a community college will these schools accept my credits?
As long as the classes you took match the required classes for the major you're transferring into. Your "Generals" usually transfer over pretty well. But if you took random electives that have nothing to do with the new major, there's a chance you lose those.
Has anyone attended University Of Phoenix for the associates degree they offer ?
Personally, I'd run away from U of Phoenix. In my opinion, there are far better options.
Are they accredited, if I get a fast associate could I use that to get a bschelors at a local college by my house.
Yes, and yes. But you can also hack a full Bachelor's Degree, then get a Master's at your favorite University. Lot's of options.
Associate degree only worth it if your doing ADN or something along those lines. Otherwise Associate degrees are worthless
Whats ADN?
