BALS since it's so flexible. Try to choose subjects you already know so it's faster
http://degreeforum.wikia.com/wiki/Sanantone%27s_BA_in_Liberal_StudiesYou can knock out credits at Straighterline fast. You can also get 18 free credits if you get the Study.com scholarship. Also do all the free quick credits that are available.

First, we need to know how many credits you got for each course. If they're all 3cr, then just say that. But if any courses were more than 3cr, that's important to know.
Next, I can't find the Nursing exams at EC. Are they old? Do they still apply to a degree there? How many credits are they each worth?
Last, are all of these LL courses (like from a CC)? Or are any UL?
Then, do you just need any degree as quickly as possible for some reason? Or would you rather have a specific degree, but aren't sure which one?
I can help with a TESU degree, but I'm less familiar with EC and COSC. Others here can be more helpful there, but they will need to know the answers to the above questions as well.
Check out TESU's BALS and BSPS (BS in Professional Studies), where Nursing might be a good possibility in the Specialized Career Track area. Let me know what you think.

Thanks Ideas for the helpful reply. Do you have a spreadsheet for TESU BALS, so I can input my completed courses and see which courses and hours I would need to complete?

Thank you sanantone for providing help. I did not complete the associate's in nursing.

The TESU BALS is going to be very easy for you to complete. If I were you, I would apply for the Study.com scholarship, where you will get 6 free courses over 3 months. Take the first course (Personal Finance, which will go in Free Electives), and then take 5 UL courses like Psych or History. Take all of the free courses we know of. And fill in the rest of the Gen Ed's, and you're done. I'm guessing you could complete all of this in 6 months or less (maybe even 3).
Here's a spreadsheet for you, showing how it would work out.
COSC would probably be fairly easy as well, although you'd need a lot more UL credits (30 of them), and they don't consider most of the Study.com courses UL. Meaning you'd have to find other ways to get those UL credits, which would probably be more expensive. But it's worth looking at.
