I noticed you're looking at APUS BSIT, they have the regular class version and the competency based version which is cheaper/easier/faster as it's self paced and you can blast past whatever you know.  See link of programs: https://catalog.apus.edu/undergraduate/a...bachelors/ and if you see the word *momentum* beside the degree, those are competency based.

Now, APUS allows up to 90 credits transfer for their Bachelors, however; that being said, they only allow 60 ACE credits for transfer.  That is one example of a school, there are others like Brandman, Capella, NAU, U of Wisconsin, Walden, WGU and so on, they all have competency based degrees.

Most of the schools that offer great transfer amounts or number of credits, they allow unlimited transfers to the degree but require 30 credits residency, you'll be lucky to find schools that allow 75% of the degree to be transferred, as most state or public schools that are traditional B&M schools, they only allow 25% to 50% max!

I don't have very many courses, some computer classes and an Algebra class.  The APU "Momentum" degree appears to require an Associates degree before you can enter.

"Prospective students must have an associate of arts degree, associate of science degree or bachelor’s degree to participate and cannot transfer from a traditional APUS degree program."

Unless I am reading it wrong.

You are reading it correctly.  The APU Momentum programs all require an AA or AS, which basically means they want the GE's out of the way (so an AAS won't do), and you do all of the remaining credits entirely in the major.
