I've noticed a far majority of the threads and comments are Bachelors Degree related, and I understand why. Unfortunately, I'm the type of person that needs to have near term milestones or I'll lose motivation. A Bachelors Degree is my end goal, but I thought if I could break this down and get an Associates and then focus on the Bachelors it might be more of an incentive for me. Thinking a business related degree from maybe Excelsior or Thomas Edison State University. Anyone have thoughts, suggestions, or lessons learnedI did the traditional schooling thing for about three years. I quit university, but then later learned about associates degrees, so I did some JuCo courses online and earned an AABA. All my credits were regular RA, but everything was pretty cheap. Being in-district, plus using Pell grants, my out-of-pocket was very, very low.
Are you okay with doing traditional schooling, or do you just want to mostly do alternative credits?
