Was pursuing my BSBA in CIS but decided to knock out ASBA first.

The way I see it I need 36 credits to complete an ASBA. It would take an additional 36 credits to get a BSBA. If there's no additional cost then getting the ASBA should give me a sense of accomplishment. I would think it would also look better to prospective employers.

I wouldn't count on prospective employers being impressed by it. I worked in HR for years, and we NEVER looked at an AA as anything useful. We either wanted someone with a BA/BS, or a certain amount of experience. An AA didn't cut it.

This obviously does not apply to jobs where an AA/AS/AAS is required like a nurse or fireman or something like that. But I wasn't in those fields, I was in business.
