You have 80 credits, may I ask what your credits are in? That will play a huge role as to what you study.
I would say first you should strongly consider Athabasca. As a Canadian school, I'd say you're better off getting into master's programs in canada, and they're also regionally accredited, if you wanted to go the american route. They're extremely flexible, and the tuition would be considerably cheaper for you. They also have the "challenge for credit" option where you can take many exams at around half the price of the course, and get credit if you pass the exam. The drawback, however, is that they won't accept CLEP/DSST.
If you are going american, may I ask why you're choosing these two schools, and not one of the big three? I'd say nationally accredited schools should be avoided at all costs. At TESC, you'd probably only need to complete a capstone course. Also, they have TECEP exams. These are pen/paper exams that can be delivered, just 99/each. Very good price, free shipping (even to china). They have several subjects that can be used to fill out your degree. As well, don't forget about straighterline. 100% online courses that can fulfill a lot of your requirements.
I think now you should make a degree plan, lay out your credits so people can see, and we can make a more informed suggestion regarding what you can do.
The OP sent me a private message, but I think the above is the best suggestion.
