Associate's Degree to Bachelor's Degree
#9
First, is it an AAS, or a regular AA/AS degree? Because that makes a difference in if WGU will take that as a block transfer for your GE's. Second, the downside of the WGU program is that even if you had a regular AA/AS and they brought it in for your GE, it's like trading 60cr for 30cr or so. The GE makes up a smaller portion of your degree there than just about anywhere else.

I think that if you want a degree, it's better to figure out what kind of degree you want, and the cheapest/fastest way to get it - and WGU may or may not be your best option. One of the Big 3 may be better, especially COSC or EC's BSLS/BSLA degrees, which allow you to bring in lots of credit that wouldn't fit into a BALS degree (they both allow 60cr of non-liberal arts courses, while the BALS only allows for 30cr of less of those). WGU is VERY specific about what you can bring in, and if you have a lot of "electives" type courses that don't fit into their degrees, then you just "lose" that credit, meaning it just goes away and doesn't get applied.

You need to provide more info about the courses you took, so that we can help you make a good decision.
