I cleaned up your initial post (tiny fonts), you have done the template and last post addendum, but the info isn't as detailed as I would have recommended, the more details the better, such as your study habits/style, are you into classes or exams, etc... You should apply to both TAMUC and UMPI to see which degree suits you most - BAAS or the BLS. Have you checked with TAMUC or UMPI to see if they have a competency based concentration you're interested in?
If you're in Texas, I suggest applying to them and for the remaining requirements, take it at TAMUC. Try and complete the required 30+ credits in 3-4 sessions, each session is just $750 at the moment until they decide to make changes. You have several competency based concentrations to select from, if you finish in 4 sessions, that's just 3K. I would go for them before UMPI as it's an instate program, apply to both: https://www.degreeforum.net/mybb/Thread-...ogram-List
Thanks everyone for being nice! People are usually really mean to me in academic groups, so I was worried because I'm really going into this kind of blind. I guess I assumed it was mostly test based, but programs like this should be good, too.
Basically, I'm not the best student, but I do really well in math, hence accounting. I'm also very good at tests, but awful in class, but that's mostly because of how drawn out classes are. I think I could keep focus better in any accelerated program. Also, I am really bad at biology and chemistry, so I'd like some advice on how to tackle that if it will be required.
Some of you mentioned that I could still get financial aid. Is that true? I guess these places are still accredited schools even if they have accelerated programs. Not that I thought they weren't! But it's better to assume the worst so that you can plan for it, right? But if this is true that I could still use my remaining pell grants, this is very good news!
I will do more research on these schools, but while I do that, I would like some advice on that science credit.
