Default Looking for a way to transfer all my credits

Hello,

A bit of background: I have completed undergraduate courses at two recognized Canadian universities. I have 6 courses left to complete my 4-year bachelors. Unfortunately, I might have to leave the country very soon and won't be able to complete my degree.

Is there an accredited online university (preferably American or Canadian) that would be able to transfer all of my credits and grant me a bachelors degree? Even if the degree is in general studies, I want to have it in hand for the future.

What is the process? How long does it take?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

I have no idea about the technicalities, but Canadian universities listed at http://www.cvu-uvc.ca/english.html agree to accept one another's credits. They also offer several hundreds online courses.
See the website and contact CVU or your CVU university of choice to find out.

I was hoping to find some university that would grant me a degree without residency requirements based on my existing course work. Someone mentioned Athabasca. Is that the best or only choice?

Try Excelsior, Charter Oak State College or Thomas Edison State, they have generous transfer policies:

www.excelsior.edu

www.cosc.edu

www.tesc.edu

You can also try Degree Forum they go over these 3 universities quite a bit:

Athabasca has a 30 credits residency (=must complete ten courses with them).
They are liberal enough with credit transfer, but grow more inflexible the more credits you transfer and typically end up having second thoughts, even if you are within the allowed number of credits, so beware.

Again see here http://www.cvu-uvc.ca/english.html

and check with your institution of choice.
