https://csuglobal.edu/

SNHU has a College for America competency based program. They will accept up to 90 transfer credits towards a bachelor degree. 30 credits from them to graduate.

They accept alternative credits, military, DSST, CLEP, AP, Saylor. Sophia, Onlinedegree.com, IT certs and nanodegrees and math assessments. 

Many large corporations are partners and get a tuition break of $3000 per year. Federal employees AND family members are eligible as are SEIU family members etc. for the $3000 price not counting any employer tuition assistance. Worth a look and see.

cool 
I know WGU accepts the Data Analytics nanodegree, but only for their Bachelors Data Management/Data Analytics.

This is the only other place I've seen accept nanodegrees.

I have the AI Programming with Python Nanodegree
so that's 
"IT-140 OR CS-110 plus 3 free elective credits (up to 6 credits total)"
https://www.snhu.edu/admission/transferring-credits/work-life-experience/it-certifications

IT-140 is "IT140 - Introduction to Scripting" --- 3 credits 
https://www.snhu.edu/admission/academic-catalogs/coce-catalog#/courses/HyB5zbzg-?bc=true&bcCurrent=Introduction%20to%20Scripting&bcGroup=Information%20Technology&bcItemType=Courses

but the "Google IT Support Professional Certificate" seems like the best deal 

Earn up to 9 credits in total:
IT 202: Computer Operating Systems
IT 212: Introduction to Computer Networks
one IT Elective course at the 200 level or above

"You can earn college credit through industry-recognized certifications or professional licenses you've earned, or other workplace trainings that have been reviewed and approved by SNHU faculty, qualified subject matter experts or a recognized credit recommendation service (ACE and NCCRS).
Students must submit evidence of successful completion though official transcripts from a regionally accredited institution, official ACE credit transcript, official examination score reports, evidence of a current industry-recognized certification, or registry in an official licensure database.
*All current ACE and NCCRS credit recommendations are eligible for credit evaluation at Southern New Hampshire University. If you don't see your course on this list,"
