Tech degree planning

[Braedot]

Your Location: Utah
Your Age: 24
What kind of degree do you want?: Bachelors with a major in tech. Major flexible, but preferably IT. More interested in networking, cybersecurity, cloud and less interested in data analytics, software development, and computer science
Current Regional Accredited Credits: None.
Current ACE, CLEP, or NCCRS Credits: None.
Any certifications or military experience?: CompTIA 220-1101 exam passed, but not 220-1102 for the A+.
Budget: I'd really like to keep it under the 15k mark
Commitments: A full time job and a girlfriend
Dedicated time to study: 20-30h a week
Timeline: 36 months or less; would like an associates within 18
Tuition assistance/reimbursement: I may be getting assistance from the state, but I'm still waiting to hear on eligibility and benefit details. Might get some from the pell grant

I'd like an associates degree along the way if logical. IT Certifications or an undergraduate certification along the way would be nice, but not as important to me.
I'd *prefer* a non-proctored environment. Really want to do as many courses on Sophia as possible
I'd *prefer* not to do Calculus level math or above
It's a requirement for me to be able to accomplish everything online.
Willing to spend a little more (with the total budget still being 15k) to accommodate the associates degree preference

Here's what I've got so far. I've emailed Snow College to see if their cybersecurity/networking AAS program will accept ACE credits. If they do, I'll do that and transfer it into WGU.

If not, this would be the plan for a WGU IT degree:

Open to other programs/schools. I considered the BABA PM&IS at UMPI but the courses are not interesting to me at all, I want to learn applicable skills for my field.

The PUG/TESU Cybersecurity and Cloud Computing programs seem interesting. I haven't looked much into SNHU


Thanks for reading and I appreciate any feedback
