Associates from one/Bachelor's from Another

[cookderosa]

It looks like Excelsior has lower requirements for their liberal arts Associate's than COSC does. I'm interested in potentially getting my bachelor's from COSC, but may already have enough credits to cover everything but the residency course for an Associates at Excelsior due to the lower requirements. Is there anything that would prevent one from getting an associates at one college, then eventually getting their bachelor's from another of the Big Three?
It's going to take a while due to money to get enough credits for the Bachelor's, and I'm interested in having a 2 year degree on my resume in the meantime if I already qualify at Excelsior.

Or maybe I'm just wasting my money and should just grind and be patient till I get the Bachelor's. What do you guys think?

you can do it, just know that no matter what the contents of your AA are from wherever you earn it, none of the big 3 will accept an AA as automatically covering the gen eds- you'll still have to hit those and or fill gaps.

Random example: School A requires a foreign language, School B does not. You earn your AA from School B and then transfer to School A. You might get all 60 credits to fill slots/electives, but you still need that pesky foreign language!
