Default Cherry picking of grades at Excelsior

OK everyone, I officially did it. I submitted my request to remove all non-essential C grades from my Excelsior transcript. The deadline was Dec 31st.

This leaves me deficient now by 25 units of lower level, any area credits. This is where my good friend uncle same comes in to save the day. I plan to use as many FEMA courses (I have 7 so far) to boost my units and DANTES to boost my GPA. Does anyone know if the FEMA courses, which are awarded only "P" grades are averaged in to calculate GPA at Excelsior?

I also noticed a problem, they change the requirements of my program while I was awaiting my AS degree, and now I have additional requirements for my BS. Has this happened to anyone out there?

Appreciate your help.
