Once you have a Masters, undergrad degree won't really matter, if you are staying in the same field as your Masters.
How much time would have for your Masters program?
I don't think there are fast Masters degrees in history or international relations.
There is one in I/O psych but the school isn't the best. https://www.capella.edu/online-degrees/m...sychology/
It might be something you want to go for anyway, but I think management is a lot safer.
Capella is not on my list of schools anyway. It's way too expensive. As for how much time i have for my masters, i will like to finish as quick as possible, that is why WGU was a good option because of their structure.

When you say APU - what school are you referring (there is more than one 'APU')?
As far as obtaining a US bachelor degree from TESU, that is an option - there are quite a few posts here about how you would get your international transcript evaluated for US credit (a forum search should locate those threads).
TESU only accepts credits from Patten University that are ACE recommended (so depending on the courses you took, and when - you can search here to see what Patten courses are/where ACE recommended https://www2.acenet.edu/credit/?fuseacti...ripts.main). If you have ACE approved courses from Patten I'm not sure how easy it is to get them added to an ACE transcript now that Patten is no more - You can try adding them and see what happens, I would not delay on this.
I thought WGU had a policy that does not allow students who live outside of the U.S. regardless of citizenship status. I've never heard of them rejecting U.S. permanent residents or visa holders who live in the States.
Patten University was regionally accredited before it was absorbed by the regionally accredited JFK University. They don't have ACE-evaluated courses because they didn't need them. TESU accepts their credits just like they accept other RA credits.
Edit: WGU's policy is based on where you live and not your citizenship. You must live in the States or a U.S. territory. Exceptions are only made for military members and their families living overseas.

Thanks @sanatone, i actually live legally here in the United states, and as stated earlier, i live in California. And it's good news to know that they will accept my Patten University credits.
