Needs help deciding on degree (BACS vs BSIT vs BSBA)

[Zataralos]

It's hard to advise you. The path to BSBA is well understood, and you can definitely get one using the alternative credit methods championed here. If cheap and fast are your biggest criteria and you're comfortable with taking business courses, that would be the way to go. Choosing between BSIT and BACS, you really have to look at what your career is/will be and which would do you the most good. They are quite different and I don't think you should choose between them on the basis of which is cheaper or faster.

Check the PLA links in my sig to start to get a rundown on what the PLA process and a portfolio is about. The TL;DR is that if you can get the credit you need just by taking a cheap online course or exam, that's the path of least resistance.

Thanks davewill, 

More of a timing question, most plans I've reviewed here assume knocking out required courses, but if folks get credit from a PLA, typically which courses do those map to? I'd prefer not to knock off classes through Cleping that I would otherwise get from a PLA. I understand that no two PLA will be alike, but a general direction would be helpful.

Thanks
