CURRENT info on a BS in Business or Management or Leadership from the BIG THREE

I'm in Missouri. The search feature isn't the greatest and the threads I found are pretty dated. Has there been a recent comparison done on a BS business degree from the big three (costs, strengths, weakness, personal experiences)? THANK YOU!!!

COSC is having its moment now as the cost leader (EC had a long run, when I joined TESC/U was king, now COSC can shine).

TESU is probably still easier from a degree planning perspective as they are more transparent with requirements and what will transfer in. They also have the most degree options, which isn't relevant here since you want a BSBA and all 3 cater to biz folks.

But a lot of it's still going to come down to what your current credits (if any) look like.

None of the Big 3 take an AA as a block transfer, as far as I know (though WGU, which is Big 3-adjacent, does), so the credits that made up that AA would matter.

Basically, depends what you really want. You have four options - Big 3/WGU, You might want to take a look at this thread: https://www.degreeforum.net/mybb/Thread-...#pid302586

If you're wanting a one and done school, I highly recommend WGU for their BSBA and MBA combo. ACBSP and they are competency based, you go at your pace/speed and pay accordingly.

Keep in mind that while WGU does take block transfer, their general eds are generally a lower chunk of the degree than the B3 GEs, and there's no real flexibility as they don't have electives or anything similar.

That being said, WGU is self-paced, accepts a good chunk of ACE and accredited transfer credits (including Nationally Accredited like your Nations U credits), and is relatively cheap IF you are disciplined and can finish fast in their self-paced model.
