need help with picking Big 3 school and degree planning

Unless she needs a bachelor's degree in anything for a promotion or something, a bachelor's in general studies is not good for jobs. It's hard to answer this question because there are so many options. TEEX, Onlinedegree.com and Saylor are the cheapest options for credit.

I second this. I think the best utility of a degree in her case would be if it were clearing a barrier for her that was holding per back from a promotion. I don't see a scenario that unlocks a lot of opportunities that don't ALREADY align with her employment.

But, if I were in your shoes, I would work this puzzle for my kids. With the debt you're already carrying, you can get him started now and put your resources in that basket to get HIM up and out without any student loans. No matter what your teen's target college, you can start earning college credit now while he's in k-12. I work with homeschool parents who deliberately line up college credit options with their kid's curriculum, and while I'm not saying you have to go that far, he can certainly leave high school with at least 30 college credits. Graduating debt free would change his life. I don't think a $10,000 degree from TESU (which is what it would cost) is going to change hers.
