You are not the first person by any means to be caught in the trap of "non-transferable credits", and ITT Tech is not the only school with this problem.
By the way, here is the "fine print" on their website:
Will A Student's Credits Transfer?
Decisions concerning the acceptance of ITT Technical Institute credits by any institution other than an ITT Technical Institute are made at the sole discretion of the receiving institution. ITT Technical Institute makes no representation whatsoever concerning the transferability of any ITT Technical Institute credits to any institution other than an ITT Technical Institute. It is unlikely that any credits earned at an ITT Technical Institute will be transferable to or accepted by any institution other than an ITT Technical Institute. (emphasis added)
Students considering continuing their education at, or transferring to, any institution other than ITT Technical Institute must not assume that credits earned at ITT Technical Institute will be accepted by the receiving institution. An institution's accreditation does not guarantee that credits earned at that institution will be accepted for transfer by the other institution. Students must contact the registrar of the receiving institution to determine what ITT Technical Institute credits, if any, that institution will accept.
As to your question: I recommend you go ahead and finish the BSEE. You might do a little lobbying and inquire if you could get credit by exam for subjects you already know. However, I'm sure you've already discovered that a BSEE will take you into subject matter left untouched in your BASEET program.
I also attended my first MASTERS this year (I went to the Pre-Conference as well as the Conference--5-1/2 days! Whee!) and certainly plan to do it again.
