So, I just got my credits evaluated through AMU for a Bachelor's in Intelligence Studies/Intelligence Analysis. Not the amount of credits that I expected to have transferred. They barely took anything from my Associate's Degree and I have all the credits that a 35F receives for A.I.T and ALC. Anybody on here have a better University suggestion for transferring the most credits? I do not wish to get a degree besides an Intel one, but if there is something else that would get me my degree faster and still help me transfer to the Intel Community as a civilian once I get out, then I'm all ears.

I have a degree from Excelsior (AS & BS). Credit transfer was 100%, including all CLEPS & DANTES. I'm a former Intel Analyst (0231).
When I got out, and became a government contractor, my clearance and experience were far more valuable than my degree at the time. Having a degree is nice, but a "specific" degree is secondary to "any" degree, and well below clearance and experience.
EDIT: Have you pulled up your JST to see what the ACE recommendations are?

As far as I'm aware, AMU takes the most credits of any school. There is only one other school I've heard of that has an intelligence program and I believe it's only for a Master's degree (can't recall off the top of my head). The credits that don't transfer for the core requirements go towards electives. I personally didn't have a problem with the transfer since it maxed out my electives, so then I could focus solely on the core requirements.

Thank you. I finish with my first course through AMU this Sunday. My associates and intelligence credits ended up maxing out all of my electives just like you said.
