Just like the BOG AAS, these are supposed to be terminal degrees.  These allow people who have the BOG AAS to ladder into a Bachelors, the reason a BA/BS might not be suitable are the requirements for that degree, this allows the full or max use of "non RA" credits.  I think it's still a good idea to review what options are available before going the RBA route. 

The ROI/Value of the Regent BA isn't as good as the Big 3 or CBE. An example is from Marshall University: https://www.marshall.edu/rba/
Here's another example at WVUP: https://www.wvup.edu/future-students/aca.../#Programs
There are differences between the RBA's at WV universities, Marshall just requires 15 UL, WVUP requires 39 UL.

Terminal degrees is a meaningless phrase. I have a terminal degree. My BLS from UMPI is a terminal degree. Means nothing! I went to grad school with it. 

No one outsides of WV has any idea what a Regents Bachelor of Arts is! There are plenty of programs on this forum where one with a BOG AAS can transfer to. We see people do it every day.
