Credit Pathways Researcher · TransferCredit.org
Vaibhav picked his major early — criminology and law — and then set about finishing it as fast as the system would allow. He used a mix of credit-by-exam, summer intensives, and overloaded semesters to finish in three years instead of four, and he still has strong opinions about which shortcuts were worth it and which ones cost more than they saved.
For the last two-plus years he's been working with college advisors on credit-pathway research — which courses transfer cleanly, which schools update their equivalency tables, and where students keep getting burned by misinformation. He writes for readers who are in the thick of it, not looking back on it.
He prefers short paragraphs, concrete numbers, and the kind of advice he wishes he'd had at 18.
