Completing a bachelor's degree in 6 months is hard to do when you're coming in with 0 credits. You can test out of gen ed before you enroll, but that means it's going to take longer than 6 months total to finish because you have to count the time it took to test out.
At best, a school will default the WGU GPA to a 3.0. At worst, a school won't accept you until you have graded coursework.
Completing a bachelor's degree for less than $10k is extremely cheap. Sometimes, going for the absolute cheapest option either means more cost down the road or limited graduate school options.
Stores often have a generic brand and a store brand. Both are cheaper than national brands, but the generic brand is the cheapest. The store brand is usually a good knockoff of national brands while the generic brand is of very low quality. Sometimes, it's worth it to spend a little more.
On the first page, Dfrecore recommended a BSB in IT Management from WGU. That is a business degree similar to the BSBA in CIS. WGU's MS in IT Management is also a business degree.
