I wouldn't suggest doing a bachelor's in criminal justice if you already have an associate's degree since that would be redundant.
You could get a bachelor's in business and a minor in psychology from UMPI. Or the BAS if you were into technology. You can get up to 3 minors at UMPI.

In addition to that, you should really fill in the addendum and template with extra details, such as your age, budget, state, study habits, etc. You're going to be provided so many different options and be swayed in all directions, providing more detail will be beneficial for those helping you. For now, I suggest the UMPI BLS with CJ and Psych minors... Link: https://www.degreeforum.net/mybb/Thread-...Area-works

Thank you! I am 33 years old and live in Kentucky. I am someone who puts their all into their work and completes assignments as soon as they are assigned. My goal is to become a case manager once I complete my BA.
I have been advised to continue a criminal justice BA, if this is incorrect please advise me on the path I should take if you have the time. I would like a minor in sociology or psychology any other recommendations on minors would also be amazing.
I want colleges where I can use ACE credits.
Thank you so much for your time!

Basically, with the energy, money, time that you've got, I highly suggest a double major, the BA CJ and Psych instead of the BLS CJ/Psych minors I mentioned earlier. I was thinking you were wanting it cheap, easy, fast, this double major would be better ROI/Value in the long run, you can further personalize the elective classes to have the 3-4 classes that go towards the MAOL, just in case you want to do the MAOL later. In fact, if you do the double major in 3 sessions at $5100, and the MAOL in 2 at $4700, that's going to be just $9800! Under your 10K budget!

The majority of the classes are only offered at Study.com, some will be offered at Sophia.org, that's the main reason I recommend the Sophia.org and Study.com combo to max the credits. You may want to review the WIKI plans for UMPI and see what degree pathway would be better for you, a BLS with minor or a BA with major.
