Any certifications or military experience? None

Budget: Up to 10K, but less is much better. 
Commitments: I have weekends and evenings to work on school but I have a lot going on. Asynchronous and self-paced seem attractive to me because work can be intermittently demanding.
Dedicated time to study: I can study most nights and one day a weekend. Reading and writing are not too bad for me, and I'm a decent test-taker. My husband attended an online school pre-2020 with very limited online support and proctored tests that were stressful (timed, glitchy, several retakes of 150+ question exams because of glitches). I'm wary of similar bad experiences. 
Timeline: I don't want to drag this out, but I'm willing to spend more time if necessary (for example, if the school is not competency-based but has other advantages). 
Tuition assistance/reimbursement: None

I've been a technical writer/ software trainer for about 24 years. I started toward a music degree in 1992, so my RA credits are 30 years old. I look at this like starting over with college. I'm open to options but UMPI and TESU are frontrunners. A BSBA, BABA or BALS degree seem like my best option. 

I've been reading here for a while and it's about time to apply and make a plan. So... do I finish taking more alt credits before I apply? Do I apply to a few schools to see who gives me the most credit for my transcript? Do I pick one school and just power through this? It's been a long time since I did college, and I made some bad decisions the first time. Help me do better this time!  

Thanks!
