The thing you don't want to do is partially finish both. Finish one, with the option to graduate quickly if need be. That is exactly what I will do if I decide to go for the 2nd degree.
A bird in the hand.
Thanks.

So what would be a reasonable time frame estimate to complete the nine courses ? I know it’s all subjective.

Depends on the source, but I would expect that most students could do at least 2 per month. You might be able to do 3 or 4 per month if you push it.
In progress:
TESU - BA Computer Science; BSBA CIS; ASNSM Math & CS; ASBA
Completed:
Pierpont - AAS BOG
Sophia (so many), The Institutes (old), Study.com (5 courses)
ASU: Human Origins, Astronomy, Intro Health & Wellness, Western Civilization, Computer Appls & Info Technology, Intro Programming

Thanks Rachel. 3 per month would take 3 months to complete. It may be worth postponing graduation for 3 months to get an additional bachelors degree this one being in business . Hmm.

Faster than the time to complete Calculus
2 months would be a long time @ 20 hours per week. So I say 2 months or less for the 9 courses. CMS Learn you could do in 2-3 days for the BUS-210 Quantitative Skills requirement.
You do both Capstones in one term though I don't think anyone here on the forums has done that before. But if you need a battle plan to do this, I can come up with one.
Degrees: BA Computer Science, BS Business Administration with a concentration in CIS, AS Natural Science & Math, TESU. 4.0 GPA 2022.

More info required - What's missing in the first degree? What's missing in the second? It's best to create a spreadsheet and complete the course requirements of the first degree except the capstone. If you have energy, money, time left to complete the second one, do that before you apply for graduation.
You need to decide if you're using the 16 residency credits vs the residency waiver fee... you're taking 9 credits already with the cornerstone and 2 capstones, just a few more credits and you'll be at 16. Make sure to have 30 RA credits usable in BOTH degrees, to be safe, I would recommend again having this all entered into a spreadsheet for review/tracking purposes.

The courses come in with a completion date, not a start date. So it's all about when you finish a course.
