With 10 credit Hours from an RA you will be 2 short for Pierpoint. You can get those cheap if you MOVE FAST from ASU with a $99 course. (https://ea.asu.edu/courses).

You can then get the Pierpoint Associates and that will be a big relief for you workwise.

I really would encourage you to think about plugging away at a Bach degree. If the TESU residency fee and the COSC 90 hr limit are stopping you, look closely at Excelsior. It's the least expensive of the big 3 from what I have read. I went with TESU because I like the "University" at the end of the name and my business partner with a BA, BS. MBA, MS and MD said that I can pay for a BSBA thru our company as it's "business" but if i wanted a BALS to cough it up. So, I REALLY hurt my head with Stats and Algebra. . Logically it doesn't matter but as i am originally from Canada, in my head only Universities offer Degrees.. :-). But seriously, you are ~84 credits hours towards a bach, you can do it.

Maybe, possibly, look at the one term at WGU path, If they take most of your credits towarsd their degree, you should manage them, you managed the Sophia in the same time!
Thanks! I like “University” title to but 3k residency waiver just won’t work for my budget. I can barely make ends meet. 

I thought ACE credits are considered are considered Regional Accredited?
