Help me in the right direction [Environmental Sciences/Biology/Ecology]

[dfrecore]

I can't speak for EC and COSC, but I am very familiar with TESU.

The Environmental Studies degree would be expensive, and impossible to test out of - lots of courses that are hard to find there. Not impossible to do, you could do it all online through them, but I think you could find a cheaper option elsewhere.

The BA in Biology can be tested out of, but a lot of masters programs want your science courses to be butt-in-seat, which means that you would have to spend some time doing those courses.

A BA in Liberal Studies would be optimal, since it's totally available as a test-out degree, and very flexible.

I think the best thing for you to do is figure out what MA program you're interested in, and then see what the requirements are to get into the program. Do they want specific degrees? Do you need a certain GPA? How many graded credits do you have to have? This is an instance where you want to work backwards to get to the BA you should get. Then make sure you get exactly what they want.
