A Liberal Arts degree should be fine. Whatever gets me to the destination in the most expedient manner. My problem is that I have hit the wall of opportunity because I don't have a degree (including getting work visas to other countries). So its more a problem of not having a degree, rather than what the degree is labeled.

Based on my research (I'm in a similar situation), the only good options available to non-resident foreigners are Oregon State's eCampus (this is a good option if you already have a Bachelor's but want a second one in a completely different area - Oregon State has a couple post-bac options) and UMPI. UMPI + Sophia seems to be the cheapest and fastest option available to get a Bachelor's degree for people in our situations. There are other options too but they're all incredibly expensive.

I'm personally leaning towards UMPI...
Oregon allows 135 quarter credits. Which is 90 credits. Many other unis allow that. I recommend that you check it. The price of the credits looks on the expensive side if you have to make 30 credits with them. Apart from that it looks a nice place to study. Wink
