Shmoop Just Added 12 Literature Courses to Their College Courses

Saying all that, my main question is this: would it make sense for me to also get an AA since I will already be paying the residency waiver and graduation fee for the BSBA? I won't be able to do the capstone this year because of finances and I already paid the yearly fee for Study.com so I have to keep going with the BSBA at this point. However, a BA in English would seem to be fairly easy goal in the near future if these Shmoop courses will work towards that and it would make a lot more sense for my end goals.

Is there something I am missing or can I just tell TESU that I also want to go for the AA at the same time? Are there extra fees? Will it even matter in the future that I have the AA if I do move forward for the BA at some point or will I just send in my transcripts like normal and just have those slots filled and there not really be any advantage? I know I read a thread on here that said some people just like to get the extra associate's just for their own recognition and I think it would be kind of cool for myself to have a degree in both Science and Arts even if the AA is pretty pointless.

The AA would make a lot of sense for a few reasons. The first being that it could have some utility for you while you're finishing the Bachelor's. The second would be if life might keep you from finishing the Bachelor's as soon as you planned. It may also help keep you motivated to have an intermediate goal that acheivable.

The general ed parts of the BSBA and BA Eng are going to be the largely the same, so you can keep going at Study.com, but work on the English degree instead, using Shmoop for the courses you can't get at Study.com. As far as an AA/AS goes, yes, you can just email advising with which Associate's you want to pursue, and they will create a second evaluation for you. No penalty if you end up only completing one of the two degrees, so no problem going ahead and doing so. I declared an ASNSM in Computer Science that I never did finish. The eval is still sitting in my account. It required an additional Assembly Language course, that I never fulfilled and saw no point in going back to do, since I got the BACS.
