in 2017 I gave up on this before I even started. Now I'm serious, but I need help.

What is ACBSP exactly?? How important is it in landing a good job.

ACBSP = "Accreditation Council for Business Schools and Programs" - https://www.acbsp.org/

Yes I see, but does this influence employers? How important is it when it comes to finding a job?

It can vary depending on where you are located.  I would suggest you look at schools close to where you are located, if none of them have this (or other top tier accreditation - see https://www.allbusinessschools.com/busin...editation/) for their business program then it likely has little to no impact on the local job market. There is definitely nothing wrong at all with COSC, its an RA state school (CT) and currently a leader in the low cost option.

For you personally, if you want the Finance concentration so you can list it on your resume then that leaves TESU.  If you're ok with a BS Business Administration then it is likely lower cost WGU or COSC would be the better option. Many people here, myself included, have opted for the general BSBA and focused on our career interests at the master level. I'm very proud of my BSBA-GM from TESU, and COSC was originally my first choice - it just wasn't the lower cost or easiest to pre-plan back when I started this journey. Now COSC is coming back into favor for Big 3 recommendations (the "most popular" Big 3 seems to shift every few years due to changes in alt credit options, and school changes in policies and costs)
