I don't think a LibStudies degree is going to help you on a medical path. Did you talk to anybody at Yale, or any of the other regional schools that do PA-type courses, and find out what they'll accept? Like others have said, I have read in several places that some medical schools simply don't take some kinds of online science + lab courses.
I'd just hate to see you invest time and money in credits that won't get you where you're wanting to go...

OP said the science ones would be done in-person.

Thanks guys. I've confirmed that any BA/BS will work for the top 10 schools I'm applying to.
My undergrad is judged independently from my pre-reqs in terms of GPA.
