Thank you!

After some rough calculations, I think the BACS will be unfortunately too expensive.

I'm still looking at a single bachelor's costing < 5k$ total, found nothing that can be hacked.
Any suggestion?

Maybe a top-up? Is there also any top-up master's that don't need a bsc?

The UNADM certainly offers a Math bachelors.

This is a public 100% online university that is free. Only downsides is the degree is in Spanish and not Italian, it requires a huge time commitment with synched zoom classes that might be problematic due to work and time zones and the next sign ups are in July 2025.

Accelerating seems to be theoretically possible but only if you have finished at least 1 semester with a minimum grade of 8.0. You show them you already took equivalent courses and they will let you skip some of them (maybe like take a toefl and skip English). By law, the shortest amount of time you can get a bachelors in Mexico is 2 years 8 months, can't accelerate it further than that. I don't know if they accept foreigners that don't have curp numbers. Given the degree is free, it might be an option since there's fewer schools that offer fully online math degrees.

Accredited private online Mexican universities with math degrees include Universidad Hipocrates

Sign ups seem to be open right now and this degree is accelerated 2 years 8 months. I don't know the exact cost but their brick and mortar degrees are 3000 usd a year. So it might be a pricey option but still far cheaper option than the ITAM or UVM.

If you opt for Tesu, you should take advantage you speak Italian and nab an ACTFL exam. The speaking exam costs 165 USD, takes 40 minutes, scores are uploaded on Credly less than 1 week later and you could easily get a whopping 12 credits where 6 of them are UL.

Thank you for the feedback!
I didn't know about UNADM and Uhipocrates, will definetely check the programs

Thank you!

Unfortunately TESU's BACS is still a too expensive, I was still looking at something around 5k$ total.

GATech's master's in cyber is amazing, but really, really expensive...(10k)

Basically... You need to list your options available, your first choice and second choice options, what you can do to get enough cash to actually finish your bachelors... Your newest feedback and response contradicts your initial addendum and template, so... it'll confuse people on how much your real budget, commitments, etc...
