Which College/Degree? A lot of credits.

I've just gone back and looked at the PDFs you've posted of your evaluations. I would strongly advise against getting the BALS Comp Sci or BALS General Management. For the BALS Comp Sci, you get to do the most difficult courses of the BA Comp Sci, but you get a degree that just doesn't look as good on a resume. The only benefit is being able to skip Calculus. But, with Calculus being offered at Sophia.org, that's not much of a benefit these days. And you already have the Calc requirement filled anyway.

The BALS General Management is similar. It's a degree that just won't look very good on a resume when compared to even just a generic Business degree from somewhere.

Consider what might happen if your plans fall through and you're not able to continue to a Master's degree for a few years, or possibly forever. Aside from what would be "easiest" to complete, what Bachelor's degree would you be happiest being the sole degree on your resume forever? With how fast/easy SDC & Sophia courses are to complete, it can definitely be worth taking a few extra classes to get a degree that better fits your resume rather than just whatever degree can be finished most quickly.

You're pretty close to the BALS NSM, so what I would suggest doing would be to put both that and the BA CS on your degree plan (you can email TESU to have both plans on your account). As you work toward the CS degree, you should naturally fill out the BALS NSM. If something happens where you really, really can't wait any longer for the Bachelor's degree, you can just graduate with the BALS degree. To be honest, though, going for a BACS vs. the BALS NSM shouldn't add more than a couple more months to your plans.

Check https://degreeforum.miraheze.org/wiki/Sa...centration for SDC courses you can take to fill the NSM requirement. Skip Computer Science 303 @ Study.com because it duplicates a course that you've already transferred in. Computer Science 302 & Business 303 are still good, though. Both of these work for the Computer Science degree. You can see other suggestions for the BACS here: https://degreeforum.miraheze.org/wiki/Sa...ience_Plan

For the BACS, you have 10(.67) out of the necessary 15 UL credits + capstone needed for the degree. If you do Computer Architecture (Computer Science 306 @ SDC) + Computer Science 302 and/or Business 303, that takes care of your UL credit requirement. That leaves only LL Comp Sci courses to complete. You're so close. Personally, I wouldn't settle for the BALS unless you really, really need a degree immediately.
