Good program but I question the name changes.

Review:

I graduated in 1977 when the program was called The University of the State of New York.  Then they changed the name to Regents External Degrees, then Regents College, then Excelsior College.  For me the name changes cause a lot of problems when using this degree to qualify for programs at other schools.  Having said that, I feel it is an outstsnding way to get a fully accredited degree without having to get all your credits from just one or two schools.  I have credits from 10 different regionally accredited institutions and had no problems applying that work to the B.S. program.
It does seem that they're getting pricey.  I cannot afford them now.
