Can Engineering Credits Transfer to an Online Degree Program?

AI Thread Summary
Engineering credits may not transfer easily, particularly from Colorado Mines, which could delay graduation for those struggling with math. The individual is seeking an online school that accepts existing credits and allows for a quick, self-paced completion of their degree. Suggestions include considering CU-Denver for its flexible night and online classes, which may better accommodate non-traditional students. The priority is to graduate quickly while maintaining the freedom to choose courses of interest. Exploring options at institutions like UND for general studies has been a starting point, but more tailored solutions are needed.

Is there anything engineering credits can count towards? I have 85 hours of Colo Mines Engineering core classes; none major specific. I also have 19 hours through University of Utah through NOLS; most of which are at the 300 level (see below).

I have everything I need right now-ideal job offer, etc. Mines will take 3+ years to graduate since I struggle with the math so much. And that job may be gone by then. However, my credit doesn't appear to transfer anywhere. I want to transfer into an online school and just get this done with; any suggestions? Contact info of a counselor would be great. General studies at places like UND are my only hit so far.

Priorities are:

1) Graduate quickly (takes credit, online, self-paced, etc)

2) Freedom to take what I'm interested in

Thanks!

If you already have the job you want then maybe you can finish your degree part time at night. I know Mines fairly well and I know that probably won't fly there but CU-Denver might work well for your situation. There are many night and online classes there to cater to non-traditional students. Good luck.
 
Hey, I am Andreas from Germany. I am currently 35 years old and I want to relearn math and physics. This is not one of these regular questions when it comes to this matter. So... I am very realistic about it. I know that there are severe contraints when it comes to selfstudy compared to a regular school and/or university (structure, peers, teachers, learning groups, tests, access to papers and so on) . I will never get a job in this field and I will never be taken serious by "real"...
TL;DR Summary: I want to do a PhD in applied math but I hate group theory, is this a big problem? Hello, I am a second-year math and physics double major with a minor in data science. I just finished group theory (today actually), and it was my least favorite class in all of university so far. It doesn't interest me, and I am also very bad at it compared to other math courses I have done. The other courses I have done are calculus I-III, ODEs, Linear Algebra, and Prob/Stats. Is it a...
