NEED ANY BACHELOR'S DEGREE
#1
Hi, I'm new to this site. I am currently working in a profession where career growth requires any bachelor's degree from a regionally accredited school. I plan on pursuing a liberal arts degree or general studies. I will use 2 months utilizing sophia, study.com,or other ace credit resources before applying for a school. I want to attend  a school that will accept the most credits, preferably in the 100 range, with minimal residency requirements. Which school fits this mold? Ill pass on wgu and umpi because their max is 90.

Transfer credits are only part of the picture. I completed 57 credits at WGU in two months and 30 credits at UMPI in less than two months. To be fast and efficient, you'll need to explore the possibilities and strategize what will work for you. Welcome and best of luck on your journey!

Most universities require that you complete a minimum number of credit hours at their university in your last term(s) to establish residency at their university. I think 90 is about the most you will get from a decent university.
