@cmm0889, Welcome to the board, good initial post with addendum, template, and a bit of additional info. Having said that, you're missing the 'Rather not say' which may be critical for people to provide you a concrete, definitive, and suitable answer. Basically... If you review the addendum, template, there are reasons you want to provide extra info, we're not asking for personal identifiable info such as your address, SSN, etc, or more mentioned in the addendum.
For example, it's usually better going to an in-state/public institution, if you're in Maine, great job, your best option is the UMPI Your Pace Bachelors and then ladder to the MAOL by doing the 3-4 classes that can be exempt or transferred from the B to the M as mentioned in post #2 above. But, if you're in NJ, you might be better off transferring 114 into TESU and paying the flat rate fee to do 15 residency credits instead. In Texas, TAMUC would be my choice...
For CT-COSC is my choice, and the not for profit private institutions, NY-Excelsior, WGU for those states that endorse the institution, PUG, SNHU, etc... Just like me, you don't have tuition assistance or reimbursement, but did you ask about any other 'learning benefits', did you ask HR about EdAssist or Guild, or if they have freebies such as Coursera, EdX, Udemy, etc, that may grant credit through PLA, etc? So many variables, so many choices or options...
