CS Degree - What would be the best path?

Ok, I am back with an update. I started with Sophia one month ago and I am almost done with those GEC credits. Those should be good enough, right? I still have to do the last touchstone for the Business Communication one and to start & finish the French I course.

So if those are enough for the GEC ones, I would start working towards the BBA PM & IS credits (since from my understanding we don’t know yet the requirements for BSCS, unless I am wrong). After that I should be fine to apply at UMPI, right?

If everything I said is correct, may I get some help with an updated plan, after the UMPI changes, for the credits needed for BBA PM & IS (or for BSCS if we already know what’s needed for it, I’m fine starting with either one)?

Now, I plan on also taking the following:

1. Coursera: BUS 345: Database Management, BUS 400: Project Management App., BUS 245: Programming for Managers
2. Study.com: BUS 150: Introduction to Financial Accounting, BUS 244: Management Information Systems

I have some questions, I would be very grateful if you could answer them:

1. Are there any other Sophia courses that I should take (for PM&IS, BCSC or MAOL)? I'm asking this because my goal is to finish every Sophia courses needed so I can stop paying the monthly subscription.
2. What other Coursera & Study.com courses should I take beside those that I already mentioned? I’m planning to work through each platform one at a time to stay focused and avoid paying multiple subscriptions at once.
3. After I'm done with Sophia, Coursera and Study.com do you think that it would be enough for me to finish in one term (I'll start with PM&IS for now). Considering that I completed all of these Sophia courses in around two months and that I work from home as a freelancer, so this allows me to fully focus for as many hours I want on UMPI if needed.

I hope that my questions makes sense.

Thanks a lot in advance for your guidance! I really appreciate what you're doing.

1.  No, if you've got all the Sophia.org classes on the WIKI for transfer, that's all you need, unless you want to take some for extra knowledge, or towards an extra minor.  I would do the classes if you have a subscription already...

2.  Coursera are certificates used as extra fluff/padding towards the Certs, Degree, Experience trifecta, I would take the cheapies and freebies & Study.com is for the general education and electives, and some classes that may still go towards the major.

3.  If you max your transfer of 90+ credits, you'll only need 30 residency credits.  You should be able to complete this in one session.
