If you want to dual degree or 2 aos. Then you will have to major in bs accounting / cpa and bs cis. 
This is what I am doing.  It has 2 more accounting courses than the bsba

Which would be fine if it wasn't being thrown at me AFTER I had already planned this.
Yea I agree. I noticed it changed in the catalog awhile ago. I believe someone  on here already had 2 bsba and was interested in an accounting degree. I suggested the bs accounting but I was dismissed as being incorrect. I originally was a bsba but after the change I switched to bs so I could utilize my cis credits. Maybe by default you’re not too far off from one other bsba concentrations.

Unfortunately I do not see a single degree that has matching crossover because they are a bunch of lvl 300-400 classes for the AoS. Also, I have applied for graduation so there is no time for it unless I am canceling graduation to do it which will add another 3 months.

You could opt to do the BSBA Accounting and then the AS Computer Science.

It may be redundant but I think the op intended to max out credits. Kinda like people wanting the associates degree along with their bachelors even though it’s redundant.

For me pursuing the bs accounting set me up for bs cis by default, so why not pursue it.

I think the general consensus is that a cis degree is a combo business / tech. Like management information systems.
Integrating business with tech.

Do you think the degree changes superseded locking in your degree catalog?

I had originally been planning to do all 3 - BSBA with two AOS, ASNSM in Comp Sci plus a cert in organizational leadership.

I’m not sure. I’m going to have to look back and see when I added my degree plans. 

This is upsetting. I hope they can find a way to work with you and allow you onto the original catalog.

I remember when TESU started the 30 RA requirement; they gave everyone less than 2 months to transfer in their credits before blocking any further transfers beyond 90 alternative credits.

Generally, when your degree is locked in, the requirements can remain the same. However, if they change the transfer equivalences or what they accept, things start to get more complicated, especially when you're pursuing multiple degrees.

Yes it seems like I’ve battled changes all through my journey. Unfortunately The only thing to do is regroup and move on. If you want the extra concentration bad enough i would postpone graduation and concede the 3 additional months.

There is no additional one to be gained for me unless you are talking about doing a 4th. I am just losing my extra area of study on one degree degree. This is the 3rd or 4th change that has stiffed me. I'm sorry to cry so much about it but wasted months and thousands of dollars because of this. Lost income + spend money has so be near $15,000. I'm ticked.

This may not be a consolation, but maybe you can get the undergrad cert in CIS?

Gosh. That’s a bunch.  I don’t blame you for being ticked.
