If you can figure out which certifying bodies granted those certifications, you might be able to get some extra hours somewhere.

The most flexible BS/BA degree that can you build is the BSLA from Excelsior College. The cool factor is they put your "Focus Area" on the official Transcript.

There are no shortcuts to a bachelor's degree. But there are solutions. And you won't find a more efficient one than the bachelor's degree in liberal arts (without concentration) from Excelsior College.

Mischief_Managed Wrote:Ok I posted a similar question the other day in a different thread, but I've had some changes of thought on what I initially asked. So sorry for asking another similar question, but here goes... My end goal is Nursing school, and I was mainly focusing on one path; going the CC route and getting an ASN which I now realize means I would have to concentrate the majority of my studies at the CC. The path I believe would better serve me would be through a 2nd degree Nursing program, where I would have to get a Bachelor's degree in a non-nursing field and then could apply to the accelerated BSN program.

So basically this leads me to my new question: What Bachelor's program/school would use more of the credits that I already have?

Here are the Courses/training I've done so far:
