TESU or COSC - BALS

Nice

Do you know of a better BALS concentration. Shes into media arts, but the easiest route is just plain BALS right?

A plain BALS is going to be your cheapest/fastest route.  That's what those ACTFL credits will give you, because they're Humanities.

I'm not really certain I'd worry about the concentration, but that's me, and it REALLY depends on what jobs she's looking at want.  I'd probably start with that kind of research before deciding.  Does she just need any degree, or does it have to be specific?

She basically wants a degree, period. Its her dream and shes getting the BOG Pierpont but that's also Gen Studies so I am wondering if both degrees being the same would be a waste? but then BALS is better than nothing.

Nothing wrong with an inexpensive BALS if you don't know what you want.

Since a general AA/AS is basically nothing once you get a BA/BS, that wouldn't factor into it for me at all.  I would be going entirely based on the requirements for the jobs she's looking for.  If job after job after job says "BA in Soc" or something specific, then I'd probably focus on that.  But if many jobs are just asking for a degree, then I'd get that.  You only need to go as far as the job market demands.
