Not going to weigh in on whether you should do a UMPI/TESU/WGU degree or one with more of a name brand. There are a lot of schools that may provide you more of a name brand and do so within your budget, but they are definitely going to be on the high end of your time spectrum, if not exceed it. That said, some schools to consider that I think are a bit more name brand/will-known should include:
Penn State World Campus—same Penn State degree you would get on campus. Bachelor’s degrees available in marketing and finance. In your general price range. Minimum Penn State/non-transfer hours to complete degree: 36. Bonus points for being a Northeastern school with strong alumni presence in your part of the world.
CUNY Professional Studies—General business degree. Obviously a well-known commodity where you like. Surprisingly well-ranked university. Transfer in up to 105 credits; if you were in a CUNY CC, should be no trouble getting your credits recognized. Within your budget.
Also:
UMass-Dartmouth
Rutgers-Camden
Washington State
University of Arkansas-Little Rock
West Virginia University
University of Arkansas-Fayetteville
Oregon State University
The problem for all of these, it strikes me, is you likely are going to need to do more than the minimum number of hours if you don’t have a lot of business coursework, slowing you down further and adding to your costs.
