I finished my degree through Riddle at a satellite campus, not online but was given 36 credits towards my degree for ratings and flight experience. Plus, they took all my transfer credits from my freshman year at a NY State school.

I don’t know that I understand your post, so if you were referring to something else than this does not apply.

From their web site

Mountain State University is accredited by the Higher Learning Commission and a member of the North Central Association (312.263.0456, www.ncahigherlearningcommission.org).

For an A.S. it is up to 40 credits. For a B.S. it is up to 50 credits…
