While things were getting wrapped up for my AS, I was able to ask my advisor lots of questions and start planning my BS. Be sure to start doing the same thing now. Let your advisor know your current and future plans. Tell your advisor if you want to use credit-by-exam. Ask about the business requirements for the bachelor's degree and how you can get started on the upper-level credits in your current degree. Take any ideas you collect here and run them by your advisor to find the best option for each requirement. In many ways, you should be able to blaze the trail for others here (especially if there have been any changes to this degree recently). Get the most you can out of this opportunity to be in direct contact with an advisor - ask a lot of questions!
