Associates from one/Bachelor's from Another

I can probably use Straighterline and knock out English Comp II and the speech class easy, since I've got an account already and am familiar with the system. Can do Physics at Shmoop at no additional cost since I still have an active account for a few weeks, if that will satsify the second natural science.

COSC is the one I had my eye on from the beginning. I like what I've read on here about their customer service, and that it's a state college (unlike EC) accredited by the same body as Havard, Yale and MIT. I figure if any potential employers have questions about the validity of the college/degree, those are easy answers. If it ends up being the cheapest as well - that's icing on the cake!
At my age/experience level, it's a lot more about checking off the degree box requirement that could prevent me from being considered for jobs, rather than thinking the degree alone will get me a job. Also, lack of degree has bothered me for years. Always felt like unfinished business.

Oh, and by the way, thankyou for putting together those spreadsheets! I keep going back and forth between scribbles on a post-it and COSC/EC webpages. That's so much easier!

I would do it the way you stated then. 

All of the Big 3 are RA (regionally accredited) schools, and TESU and COSC are State schools, while EC is a not-for-profit (used to be a state school).  They all 3 would be just fine to get your degree from, and if it's a check-the-box degree, then by all means, get the fastest/cheapest one.
