UMKC is notorious for rejecting any credits it can. They've even refused to honor basic common level classes from Missouri Accredited schools, which they can't do according to their accreditation. I decided that I didn't want to fight that hard to get into a school with that kind of attitude, but it is possible to appeal their decisions. If they continue to be jerks you can petition the accrediting body that handles both schools.
Kansas State is a MUCH better school for IT. So's Rockhurst.
If you have any contacts at potential employers, or if you can manage to talk to some, ask them what they think.
