Exhausted my Financial Aid....Give it to me straight.

Do not let the transfer advisor make all decisions about your credits based on your transcript.

Put together a packet which includes the syllabus, any required projects, extra reading you did, plus any papers you’ve written for those classes.

It’s easy to look at a transcript and decide that since the college doesn’t have a course with that title, you shouldn’t get credit for the work. It’s a little harder when that person is actually looking at the reading list, completed projects, etc.

Help them help you get credit for work you’ve already done. And follow to a T whatever recommendation you get from the advisor on how to finish your degree in the most efficient way possible- don’t get to your last semester and discover you missed a pre-requisite along the way.
Good luck.
