<p>I tried to get into a uni but was rejected as a transfer. So I went instead as a non degree for two semesters. Last semester I had a 3.75 and before that was a 3.0. I tried again was rejected again. So I was going to go back as a non-degree. Found out they made a mistake I was never suppose to go as a non degree after being rejected the first time. So what are my options? I was trying to going to the University of Tampa and trying to get an Electronic Media degree.</p>
<p>Sounds like you have credits that you will use to make yet another application for admission? I think that is what you are spelling out?</p>
<p>Your options? Look at other schools were you’re qualified for admission. If you’re not a full time student, which sounds like the case to me, I’d suggest consulting with somebody in the admissions office at other potential schools before you apply, so that any issues that might otherwise preclude your acceptance are dealt with in advance. I think you might want to rule UTB out at this point, and focus on getting into another four year institution with a similar program.</p>
<p>Try being less vague please…</p>
<p>less vague? Here…</p>
<p>I have an A.A degree. UT rejected me a year ago so for fall 07 and spring 08 I went as a non degree and took courses. I have 12 credits there and a 3.0 gpa. I applied again after being told I would get in by a admissions counselor. I was rejected again so I figured another semester as a non-degree. I applied for courses for fall 08 but was told that I could not register as a non-degree. They said they had made a mistake to let me take classes for 07-08 and it was not protocol. </p>
<p>I have decided to take 2 classes for summer B at another school and appeal. I am 48 credits away from graduating. If I do not get in I guess I go intern some where and figure things out I do not know what else to do.</p>
<p>Some universities have limits on the number of courses you can take in non-degree status. You may have used up your limit at UT. In addition, some universities have rules about the number of courses that you have taken in non-degree status that can then be applied toward a degree at that institution, which would mean that even if you could take more courses in non-degree status at UT, they might not actually allow you to use all of those credits towards a degree.</p>
<p>Most universities will want you to take 60 semester hours in order to complete your degree at that university. There are a few that will accept up to 90 semester hours of transfer credits, which means that for the right major field you could complete your degree with only 30 credits at that university. Two that I know of are:
Ashford University [Ashford</a> University – Top Accredited Online Degrees, Online Colleges, Online University, Campus Education College Degrees & Certificates-A.A, B.A, and M.A programs.](<a href=“http://www.ashford.edu/home/]Ashford”>http://www.ashford.edu/home/)
and
University of Maryland University College [url=<a href=“http://www.umuc.edu/index.shtml]UMUC[/url”>http://www.umuc.edu/index.shtml]UMUC[/url</a>]<br>
Both are fully accredited, and most of their programs are available through distance education. </p>
<p>Here is the UMUC statement on transfer credit:</p>
<p>Transfer Credit Information</p>
<p>You will need a total of 120 semester hours to graduate from UMUC. If you’ve taken courses from a four-year college or a community college, those credits may count toward your degree. You may transfer up to 90 semester hours of credit from a four-year regionally accredited college or university. A maximum of 60 semester hours may be transferred from community colleges. UMUC may also accept transfer credits from military and other non-traditional sources. At least half the credit within the major, minor, or certificate must be earned through UMUC.</p>
<p>It sounds like you are in a tough situation. I wish you all the very best.</p>
<p>I didn’t use up my non-degree terms they flat out told me that it was a mistake to let me take classes during that time. I don’t know someone might get fired for that.</p>
<p>I guess I can look at getting a liberal arts degree and electronic media masters degree if things do not pan out by the end of this summer. Thanks for the info</p>
