It has the tech components you seem to have some interest in while being a very good general use Business degree (which also applies to many areas of the public sector and political arena) - and the BSBA is hands down one of the most affordable and alt course credits available. Also, there are many opportunities in the CS/IT/Tech world beyond programming.
Definitely focus on the general eds until you do decide, no matter what degree you end up with they all have the basic requirements.
I don't see a CLEP available currently called Intro to Geography (even on the official CLEP College Board site https://clep.collegeboard.org/exams), it would appear that is (now) Social Sciences and History based on its description. Others may have more information in regards to that.
I did look at it, but even though I read it had a good projected growth rate I also read it has a high unemployment rate...around 15% or so. While my wife will have opportunities awaiting her after she gets her cybersecurity degree, all I have for experience is in retail and warehouse work with some experience using Excel, Word, etc. I would be just another guy with a degree and no experience trying to get one of those jobs.
As for the intro to geography, I noticed my spreadsheet does say any SocSci course, so I'm hoping that I'm on the right track with Social Sciences and History.
