Hello and thank you for your help,
I have aproximately 185 credits, 176 from regionally accredited schools. I have completed my business management degree from WGU, which earned 90 credits. The other RA credits came from brick and mortar schools in non business fields. I have a grab bag of humanities and history credits and diverse gen eds. I would really like to use this stockpile of credits for a liberal arts/humanities bachelors with minimal new coursework.
I am considering the history and liberal studies degrees from TESU, Liberal Studies from Excelsior, and the General Studies from Charter Oak State College.
Ideally I would do the TESU history, but I believe they require new credits to be earned since completing my business management degree at WGU.
So Plan B is Excelsior Liberal Arts or COSC General Studies.
Am I thinking this through correctly ?

I’m considering applying for the online Legal Studies MA program at the University of Illinois Springfield. I recently completed the BAS program at UMPI and a Legal Studies masters program has piqued my interest as it’s very relevant for my current job and my overall professional experience. Has anyone done this program at this particular school? If not at this particular school, what should I look out for with this type of program at any school? I’m also looking at Purdue Global for their MLS program, but something doesn’t sit well with me about this school’s reputation. I know it’s part of Purdue university system, but only since recently. I feel like maybe the degree wouldn’t be respected. Maybe that concern is unfounded. Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Thx!

Additional Information: Im looking for a career change; recently out of a job and using this time to work on my bachelor’s degree. I have an interest in elementary education. In my state any bachelor’s degree comes with a route to teaching so I don’t necessarily want to limit my degree to education. Honestly, I just want to try to obtain the quickest (and easiest) bachelor's degree that I can.
Fast and easy are my top priorities. I’m ok at testing but do hate proctored exams (as most do); so other kinds of assessments might be better.

Hi all,
This forum is very useful. I found some decent options, but I still need your help.
I'm now enrolled in 2 masters: WGU AI and machine learning, and UF Innovative aging studies.
I'm considering something on the interception of these:
- entrepreneurship, innovation, creativity
- health science, bioinformatics, aging, gerontology, medical science
- AI, digital health, AI in medicine
I'm looking for a PhD (not DBA or similar), and it has to be affordable, like 10k/year max (better, less)
I'm aware of the Bioinformatics UOC, and it seems to be the only choice for now, which I'm considering.
I would be very thankful for any suggestions.
Appreciate your help.

Good Afternoon Everybody,
I am looking for affordable Upper Level UnderGrad or Graduate Spanish Credit that can be started and completed between now and end of July. It has to have the SPAN prefix or equivalent, as my wife has 18 credits but needs 30 total (at least 6 more upper level or graduate to complete her credit requirements to teach Spanish in a local school district, job offer pending the credits to add on the endorsement once credits are complete. I have searched around and either it has been very little with the correct prefix or strict availability or very expensive (which our budget can not currently support). If anyone has any ideas please let me know. I have looked at IDOMA, but it seems most courses are not transcribed as a SPAN prefix. Local CC only have lower level credit available.
Thanks again for any help!
