Starting over with math...Study.com, Shmoop, other?

Good stuff. My recommendation of WGU (or other competency based) programs are a better fit than just a regular BSBA CIS/BA CS program.
A few other programs that are IT/Software Development based as well from several providers other than WGU... You should check them out!

Note: I placed Patten in there as it would be a cheap/quick RA Masters degree when/if you wanted to do one after your Bachelors.
Several people finished the Masters program in 4 months and a grand total of $2 grand. You can't beat that with a rocket or a stick!

Awesome! thanks I will check those out

Definitely get started on the math ASAP. You have to answer the question about whether you can do higher math and the only way to know will be to try. I have a hunch that once you start studying in earnest, it will come easier than you think. Also, if you're going to be a software developer, all of the degree options will require math.

I'll add Fort Hayes State University to the list of possible CS programs to check out.

If you go for the harder CS degree, you will probably have more and higher-paying options in the future. It seems really worth doing, if you can handle the math (and it will probably cost more, since IT has the cheap WGU options). However, the IT degree would probably take less time, so you could finish quicker. But if you get the IT degree, I would bet you see many jobs that really prefer the CS degree

I would suggest the BSBA with CIS option instead as well. If you really wanted to continue onward with a more technical degree you can go for a BSIT at WGU, or their BSCIA, even their software development degree. You might want to check out their requirements and also check out Hodges UPower programs as well, they've comptency based too.

In regards to taking math courses, take intermediate/college algebra and if you want to work on more math, take Precalculus and Trigonometry at ALEKS. I failed their STATS, I would recommend SL Business Stats or Study.com, same goes for Calculus I, Calculus II is only available at SL as Study.com hasn't got one.

Again for your "math" enrichment, I still recommend Straighterline and Study.com for the bulk if not all your math credits AFTER taking all you can through ALEKS. I think ALEKS is going to extend the ACE credit recommendation again, unless they've pulled through for a 3-5 year renewal. Good luck.
