You asked why I said listed that I wanted a 4.0. That is to state that I do not want to finish a degree somewhere like UMPI or WGU that is competency based and would not be assigning a 4.0 and if I transferred out somewhere they would view it as a 3.0 or an employer that asks, I want to be able to say that I got a 4.0 on my degree from where I graduate.
I am trying to find the best way to build RA credits right now. That is the start. ONU sounded great. Such is life.
UMPI is nothing like WGU. You have grades at UMPI. In fact, you need to receive an 80 or higher to pass a class at UMPI. I graduated from UMPI with a 4.0 and a 3.949.
Wow, that is interesting. I wrongly assumed at competency based was non graded. Thank you.

I think WGU is the only school I know of that doesn't give grades, competency-based or not. They do say that a pass = 80%, but do not give grades for each course, and you do not get a GPA.

You may want to review this template (including the last post addendum) and provide more details. Link: https://www.degreeforum.net/mybb/Thread-New-to-DegreeForum-How-this-Area-works
To get you started, here is the TESU BACS & BSBA CIS plan on the wiki: https://degreeforum.miraheze.org/wiki/Sample_TESU_BA_Computer_Science_BSBA_CIS_Double_Degree_Plan
@CanICode, You can go the UMPI BABA > TESU BACS > WGU MBA and have everything streamlined that way. UMPI you can select a YourPace concentration, TESU you will skip some courses (gen eds, free electives, SOS-110). When you finish at WGU MBA, you can select ITM or another concentration when the time comes...
