When transferring Sophia Credits to Pierpont it transfers as Pass/Fail right ?
So if I had the one RA from ASU would the grade of that define my GPA for the BOG degree ?

Yes and yes. Funny, but that is precisely how it works for now!

Yes and yes (to a point). You want to make sure of the following notes:
1) Your ASU grade is an external GPA for Pierpont, you do not have an internal grade for GPA at Pierpont
2) Pierpont only uses that for overall GPA purposes as it's a requirement for their transcript application
3) When applying elsewhere, your GPA at Pierpont is not looked at, you need to send original ASU transcript

Currently have 44cr working on finishing out the 60cr and looking into areas of emphasis to potentially get.
Should I apply now and send the additional credits to Nancy once I get them to secure a May Graduation ?

Either way would do, you need to apply sooner or later. I would apply, send in your transcripts for whatever provider you already have completed the classes from. For instance, you've done the ASU or some community college classes for the RA credit, plus some Sophia.org, I would just send in the RA credits, and the classes you have added to your ACE/Credly. Once you have completed the requirements from additional Sophia.org classes or whatever, send in another transcript update to finalize...

I would definitely apply ASAP and send in what you already have completed. It can take a while for your application to be processed, so you might as well start it now.

Took the advice and just sent in my application, getting transcripts together and sent over.

When getting the pierpont BOG AOS in hopes of continuing on to a UMPI BAS of either MIS or Cybersecurity do you have to get the BOG in Information Systems ?
or would i be okay if i got the BOG in a business or marketing AOS and still had the required technical credits for the UMPI BAS ?

Merging this question, as the answer really depends on you. It doesn't matter what the BOG AAS Emphasis is in, you just need the AAS and 40+ technical credits. You can do any emphasis, but it's much better if you keep working on the balanced mix/match of the trifecta, certs, degree, experience. My suggestion is to get the BOG AAS emphasis Info System. UMPI AALS with a business concentration (freebie), ladder the AALS and AAS into the UMPI BAS MIS and Cybersecurity Minors. I'll explain it further in your newest thread... https://www.degreeforum.net/mybb/Thread-...-Questions

I see that you always mention UMPI AALS as a freebie, I have researched for sometime but I can't find how this is a freebie. Is it a freebie for US citizens only? As an international, I can't see how this can be done for free.
