Transferring Credits to Phoenix

Well, I'll start by saying this....if I didn't have the guy that signed me up (Robert) helping me through this particular process, I may have actually just given up. At present, I am still waiting on the University of Phoenix to drop the college math course II. When I enrolled, the initial credit transfer process was smooth and simple. I didn't have any issues, but the one catch was that I was still enrolled at the local community college completing my last course for my associates degree. Once I completed the associates, the new credit from the statistics course that I had completed was supposed to be transferred over. Rather than Phoenix taking care of this for me, I have had to do quite a bit of digital foot work. Downloading forms, sending copies of my credits, etc. As you can see below, I'm still waiting on the official process to be completed. 

That information being shared, I would say that while the initial transfer was beautifully smooth, this second portion has been far less simple. The first e-mail I sent regarding this was on September 11. Those who know me know that I'm incredibly impatient. Maybe a week is an appropriate time frame, but to me, it feels like an eternity, especially with how quickly these courses move. (5 Weeks each). Hopefully, this gets taken care of quickly, given that today marks day 7 (and nearing day 8) that I am waiting on this. The reason that this particular situation bothers me so much is because I was under the impression that initially, I wouldn't have to worry about it and that Phoenix would request an updated transcript from the college I was previously attending. That did not happen, which was what really bothered me about this. Says me who is sitting here blogging about it, then again, it's actually kind of nice just blurbing it out there, even without response.

My suggestions to anyone who is transferring credits to the University of Phoenix:
1) If you are currently enrolled in a different school and attending a class at the time you are interested in enrolling at Phoenix, wait until you finish the class(es) that you are presently in. This will make the transfer process smooth, quick, and efficient.
2) Keep in touch with the person who helped you get enrolled. They will be your biggest advocate until you get to know your advisers better.
3) Be persistent, but not demanding.

That being said, I'm out. See y'all next blog.
