Would OP be better off completing 20 graded credits and graduating from Athabasca University, with the BGS?   It has a 0 residency and he could put a bachelors on his resume so dumb humans or computers don't deny them the job opportunity.

I have never heard of Athabasca University, can you please explain more about completing 20 graded credits and graduating with a BGS? Would someone transfer their grad credits into Athabasca to receive the BGS? Unclear on the steps required. Please advise break-down because this is a new concept.


Athabasca has a 3 year bachelors degree in general studies. You can transfer in 90 graded credits from a regionally accredited university and pay a fee to graduate. It is a Canadian college but also has US accreditation. You only need 90 credits to get the degree. I’m assuming the graduate credits would transfer in as UL.
