Or if you have a third suggestion please let me know.
Do you mean Capella University? They are not highly thought of in the US. I would look elsewhere especially since you're a foreign student. All one has to do is google them and they'll see many controversies. You don't want that follow you with your American degree.
Which AA degree are you looking at from SNHU?
The AA degree is this one:

I mainly just want to use it as a stepping stone so I have some kind of recognized degree that an American university will accept and admit me to a bachelor degree.
I have seen some of the Capella controversies, most of what I have seen are problems with PhD level degrees and teachers not helping enough for some students. I didn't really see it as a big problem for me, but if there exists a better alternative, I would be happy to consider them.
I've read great things about the IT degrees that WGU offers, but they don't take in international students sadly.
I was also interested in the Bachelor’s in Applied Cybersecurity from SANS.edu, but that price tag of $35,750 is really high for me.

There are so many ways to get to a similar goal of yours, you want to make sure to get some certifications, degrees and experience under your belt. I suggest a Bachelors/Masters combo for about the same price.
First, continue on your path by taking Sophia.org courses and CCNA or other certs as you intended. You want to complete an UMPI BLS MIS degree, it's not a true IT degree, it's just used for checking the box and entry requirements into the Purdue Global MSIT degree. If you have enough energy, money, time to spend on the education, this is my choice.
Cost of the UMPI BLS MIS should be around $2800 + Sophia.org/ACTFL and Study.com Biology with Lab.
Cost for Purdue Global MSIT would be $2500/term, you can or may finish in 3 terms, that's $7500.
So, for a little over 10K, you get both the Bachelors and Masters, plus it's got a better reputation than Capella!
Thank you very much, I will research this path and hopefully it is better than Capella.
