Planning out my B.A.S. now that I've gotten to it being the next(ish) step.
I have an A.A.S., and a slew of credits beyond that. I also have a very restrictive work T.A. list of approved degrees, of which B.A.S. is the most logical overall.
Has anyone done this degree before? Have any suggestions on classes better done via Sophia/Study instead? All I should need is to do 30 hours and graduate. I do wish there was a "free trial" to test out the CBE system first!
Thanks all

That particular one doesn't help a lot due to the specific focus, but I did take a look.
Mine will be something like Project Management and Business Admin minors (two minors make a major, or at least in my case)

The BAS requirements apply to all BAS students regardless of the minors selected.
Minors aren't majors. Two minors don't make a major. Applied Science is the major essentially.

Correct, and mea culpa on poor wording in a flippant manner. Taking 2 minors fits the credit criteria I need to complete a BAS, but yes, my AAS subject is generally considered to be the "major" portion of the degree.
Definitely important to not mislead those who don't know and might be browsing through, so very good point.
