How can I convert 60 credit hours and 30 years experience into a degree?

Answer 1

There are come colleges that will do this. I do not have a list, but I can refer you to one. You can contact them, and at least that would give you a start. If the school is not appropriate particular to your personal circumstances they may be able to refer you to one that is. The college is Thomas A. Edison State College in Trenton New Jersey. This college has the preferred regional accreditation and is a College Board member, so a degree from this school will be recognized by all other colleges and universities as well as employers. Click on the related links section (College Board) indicated at the bottom of this answer box, and it will take you directly to the College Board site where you can obtain the contact information for this college, plus all the information about the school itself.

Please remember, when ever choosing a college or university, make sure the school has a regional accreditation. Below I have listed the six accrediting agencies, and their areas of responsibility. Make sure the school is accredited by one of these.
