I don't know how many of you know anything about this school, but I've heard that the credits aren't really accepted for transfers. I was just wondering if any of you can confirm this before I go spend money and time that I would much rather not waste.

I have heard the same as well, even though I never went to school there. You are prob better off at the NH Community Colleges (formerly known as NH Techs) in Nashua, Manch or Concord. I can vouch for those schools and credits transferring.

be VERY wary of small private schools in general.

any state or federally helped school is fair game. a lot of private "degree" programs are worthless in the long run.

I'm applying at middlesex. Not going to hesser. Heard to much negative shit about them.

I took a course at Hesser and had no problem transferring the credits. As long as the college is accredited, you're fine.

too many friends who went to hesser who never graduated. that school is a racket made to make you poor and not give you a degree. they constantly lay off teachers mid-semester, constantly change their schedules mid-semester, though more credits now transfer than they used to.

And even with Middlesex having a good reputation with transferable credits, it's ultimately up to the direction of the wind on the day of transfer. Some colleges will just pull a money grab and come up with a bullshit excuse as to why the credits aren't acceptable, such as "even though this was the EXACT difficulty/content/meeting hours per week, we won't accept credits because they used the 7th edition of the book and we use the 9th." It's all a load of shit, really, but if you like to fight the power then you'll enjoy transferring credits.

Wait so are you trying to get an associates or bachelors?

Both are worthless these days, no offense. Gotta get your masters or above now. It sucks man.

I'm just trying to get a degree in something, probably a bachelors, so when the economy comes back I can get a better job than a god damn mechanic.

Depending on what you major in, there's a slim chance you'll get a job in what you went to school for. Most companies are outsourcing basic jobs now.
Computer jobs aren't as prolific as they were 10 years ago. I would suggest getting a degree in something related to database (SQL) shit. It's hot right now.

DO NOT major in English communications.
