Planning Bachelor Degree (through 1 of the Big 3)

@SkaroFamily Just to be clear the Bachelors of General Studies from Athabasca University is a valid degree from a Canadian based US RA school. The only drawback on it (other than being General Studies - similar to Liberal Arts) is that it is possible that you could have issues with some US master degree programs later on (with it not being a 3 yr vs 4yr degree); however - that may be mitigated as a result of you having more than 120 traditional undergraduate credits. I know your current objective is to get a legitimate bachelor degree as quickly as you can right now, but you should be aware of the potential issues should pursuing a master degree be part of your long term plans.
