When I ran your credits through Athabasca, it did not look like you would have enough upper level to make that a feasible degree, so focusing on the Big 3 makes sense.
Some steps you could take right now would be:
1. Apply for the Guardian scholarship at Study.com. Take Personal Finance first and start as soon as you get approved. Then you might as well try English Composition II since you will be able to use that in any degree.
2. While you are waiting for approval, work on ALEKS math, preferably at least through College Algebra.
3. Have your credits evaluated by WES. You have lots of nice usable credits.
4. Also, Davar is offering Intro to Marketing for $20 until March 17.

The nice part about your credits is that you have so many. It's more of a challenge to find which degree program would use the most of them combined with which one would be easiest for you to complete using online options (Davar, Study.com, Straighterline, TECEP exams, Shmoop, etc.).

Thank you very much once again, KayV!

I followed through with looking through and taking the next steps.

1. Unfortunately, it states that Guardian Scholarship at Study.com is only for US Citizens and Green Card Holders; this would exclude me as a Canadian citizen. Would there be any alternative options available for application? A free $600 deal would be a huge help in minimizing costs, though I am not putting too much hope into this one...
2. I am learning more about ALEKS courses, but don't believe math will be too much of an issue; was one of my favorite subjects Smile
3. Seems as though Excelsior only accepts international transcript evaluations from ECE for their undergraduate programs. I've contacted my college to have a transcript sent out in any case, and to replace my diplomas! Are there specific pros/cons from using WES versus ECE?
4. Thank you

Cheers!
