Construction-related degree

CSU Global hasn't updated their website. From an email I received recently, it looks like the construction SSAs have been eliminated.

For now I can only think of Associates in construction management from Ashworth College but if anyone could point me to another direction - please do. We looked at Penn Foster's construction technology associates, but their program is very confusing.

Starting conditions:
  • No college credits so far, but he started working on Sophia classes (currently is taking English Composition I and College Algebra)
  • Not in military
  • Does not qualify for Pell grant
  • Not a union member, but might be able to join in 2022
  • The cheaper the better
  • Preferably online or low-residency
  • National accreditation is OK

Thanks!

Ashworth is a joy. I recently completed a Healthcare Administration degree with them that was affordable, and transfer-friendly (I only had to complete 8 courses) including ACE approved courses. My partner is in the middle of the Construction Management program. Their platform is solid, and the course content and structure is very good. I dont know why we dont push them more on these forums.

Probably because they're DEAC and most people here are looking for RA degrees for various reasons.
In progress:
TESU - BA Computer Science; BSBA CIS; ASNSM Math & CS; ASBA

Completed:
Pierpont - AAS BOG
Sophia (so many), The Institutes (old), Study.com (5 courses)
ASU: Human Origins, Astronomy, Intro Health & Wellness, Western Civilization, Computer Appls & Info Technology, Intro Programming

If one is considering grad school, a degree from Ashworth is going to be a challenge. Most grad schools only accept RA bachelor's degrees.
