Help finding a school and degree plan

No, the BLS with MIS is absolutely not a STEM degree. It is a Liberal Studies/Liberal Arts degree. At best, it is a management degree; a business-lite degree. It's not a bad choice for students who are looking for a degree like that, but it is a bad choice for students who want to use their degree to continue on to a STEM Master's degree.

Coursera certificates/specializations being worth credits is a new thing. The Google and SAS certificates are both included in Coursera Plus and are worth credits. Depending on which school you decide to go with, it might or might not be worth pursuing any of these. Since you completed the Google IT certificate in 2022, you can get credit for that. (Or you might already have credit and not realize it; did you get the Credly badge?) The Google Analytics certificate would definitely be worth it if you went to TESU. I'm not sure if it'd be worth it for SNHU; I'm not super familiar with the SNHU degree plans.
