Trying to get Bachelors as fast as possible with AA in General Studies
#1
Hello All!

As the title suggests, I am looking to attain my Bachelors as quickly as possible. Ideally, in a business capacity as it will help leverage me into more senior positions in my industry (defense contracting). I have my AA in general studies and various other Gen ed/elective credits via JST and SOPHIA.

Your Location: Florida, United States
What kind of degree do you want?: Bachelors of any kind, with preference for business/project management.
Current ACE, CLEP, or NCCRS Credits: have Military Joint Service Transcript, have completed 33 credits via Sophia.Org that went into attaining my AA in General Studies from American Military University. 
Budget: I have GI Bill so money is less of a restriction, primarily looking for the fastest way to attain Bachelors.
Dedicated time to study: I work full time job but have very flexible hours with up to 3-4 days off every other week. Looking to invest as much time as feasible into school and degree completion (20 hours a week?)
Timeline: Need to complete the credits and attain degree as fast as possible.

Background: Have AA in General Studies from AMU. Have JST from military service. Have completed 33 credits via SOPHIA.org that a good portion went to completing AA. Desire Bachelors (preferably in business/management) as quickly as possible where GI bill can be used (virtually any accredited college.)

Requesting any and all help in achieving this goal! Thank you in advance!

Please let me know if there is any more amplifying information that would be useful!

Is there a similar roadmap for UMPI BBA pathway as there is WGU/TESU? Showing where to get approved transferrable credits from Sophia, STUDY.COM, etc.?

What makes UMPI better in my situation versus others?

Likely, speed and cost.

You can finish UMPI in 1-3 terms (8-24 weeks) for $1,700-$5,100 depending on your available time & existing knowledge. You can transfer up to 90 credits into UMPI, using Sophia for any outstanding gaps in general education if any.

from the 3rd link

Quote:UMPI max transfer of 90 credits, 30 has to be completed at UMPI.  You can complete these in 1 session of 8 weeks for $1700.  If you need another session, it'll be $3400 for 30 credits in 16 weeks.  My suggestion is going the TESU or UMPI route, with UMPI being the heavy favorite.

Basically, UMPI classes are very similar to a Sophia.org / Study.com combo, where you pay for a subscription and take all you can eat at your own pace, that's why it's called "YourPace".  

as Jonathan said "speed and cost"
