If you complete your degree at one of the big 3, then you will be get an RA degree. That will be fine for all grad programs and 2nd bachelor's for basic checkbox requirements. If you fail to complete your degree at the big 3, then those SL credits will likely not count unless your new school happens to be a SL partner school. Always choose CLEP over SL if both require equal amount of effort. I know SL is easier because of open book exams.

Moving on to the nursing prerequisites. I don't know who told you SL would be OK for nursing prerequisites. But I think it's going to be a problem. The main issue is that you don't have a letter grade for the SL courses that count as nursing prereq. Most programs want to see letter grades. And how many nursing admissions committees are going to understand your SL credits? It'll be easier to tell you that your ACE credits don't count because they don't look like typical RA credits. I would take the prereq classes at a RA school. A&P 1+2 (or A&P 1-3 at a quarter school) I would take at the same school. It can be online lab science if none of the programs you're looking has a no-online lab course restriction. You'll have to retake microbio and any other required courses as well. Sometimes non-science classes are prereqs like English comp. If you need a letter grade, you need to take it at a RA school.

Don't forget all of the other myriad of requirements like never, ever using illegal drugs (including medicinal purpose) again due to the multiple drug screens with their zero tolerance policies and passing the criminal background check with a 100% clean record.

I took the science classes to see how i will fair and it was not bad, so i know what to expect, i have already enrolled at a community college for some of the classes. Once i complete my BSBA and graduate, it will be okey to take BSN as a second degree with the prereqs completed.

My criminal background is 100% clean Have never taken illegal drugs, not on any prescription drugs....very clean I have passed the drug test several times so that will not be an issue for me
