Yes, as great of a school as Dunwoody is (I have a few friends who graduated from there and have great careers) the chance of you being able to transfer those credits anywhere is slim to none.

I love IT work but it is difficult to find good paying jobs that don't have you working odd hours. Programming seems much more in demand especially with web or java.

I eventually worked out of IT and into management. Now I am a client manager in the software/IT field as I found more stable work going that way with decent pay.

Like DoughtCom, I also do not have a college degree, just a course completed at Brown Institute for PC/LAN back in 99-00.

Not having a degree sucks in my line of work if I am ever out a job and competing against a guy on the street. That is why it is important to never burn bridges, meet as many people as you can, and make friends with those at whatever company you work at outside of your immediate group of colleagues.

I also agree with MattD in that you are better off going to a 2 year school where credits could transfer. You sound like someone that is interested in IT which is good because the successful folks in IT are passionate about the technology and become better problem solvers.

Good Luck!
