You have some certs (expired ones too), experience, you're just missing the degree, my suggestion actually is the BLS to get this done faster and to max the alternative 'ACE' credits for transfer.@bjcheung77
You can get more Coursera certs completed that have ACE credit recommendations and transfer that into the BLS as there are 60 electives that can be used in the electives area, for the BABA, you can only transfer 20 credits into the electives. I would go the BLS with MIS and 3-4 classes that can go towards the MAOL later if you ever wanted to go for a Masters through UMPI.
Thank you for the compliment and for the very informative answer. Also the template really help us too!
I have a few questions concerning the BLS degree.
1- How will it show on the Diploma? Will it show both the Major and Minor or just the Major example:
--> ( Bachelor of Liberal Studies – Management Information Systems Minor or just Bachelor of Liberal Studies?
2- Do you think the recruiters in IT , (HR, Hiring manangers etc...) will fround upon the BLS title?
I am asking because in job postings, they usually ask for a BS degree or IT degree etc...
3- You mentioned Coursera's ACE credits but can I do the same but with Sophia?
4- Is Coursera free unlike Sophia?
Thanks again for taking the time to guide me in this endeavour.
