My job requires me to have at least an Associates degree and preferably in Criminal Justice. I have been leaning towards Excelsior for the credits but whichever one would be easier and faster I'm fine with. I would be okay if it's not in Criminal Justice even though I would really like it to be since it would create more opportunity for me, the most essential point of this is to get an Associates Degree and eventually a Bachelors Degree as soon as possible. Over the past 2 or 3 months I have been taking CLEP and DSST exams, the following are the credits I have so far:
Analyzing and Interpreting Literature
American Literature
College Composition
College Composition Modular
English Literature
Intro to Psychology
Intro to Sociology
Untied States History 1
United States History 2
American Government
Principles of Marketing
Principles of Management
College Mathematics
Intro to Criminal Justice
Intro to Law Enforcement
If I were able to get close to a complete degree in Criminal Justice and take a capstone course or take any left over courses for Criminal Justice I would do that. My goal is to finish by the end of the year, if it would take much longer vs a different degree plan I would probably take that route instead. Again not sure if this is the right place but thank you for the help.
@Gojira5400 Welcome to the forum, I would recommend that you start your own thread - as this will likely get lost in the middle of this one (plus your goals differ greatly from the OPs)

Have you known someone to go the route your talking?

LL courses can transfer in as UL courses.
Lots of your courses seem to transfer in as UL by using the course search.

@SkaroFamily I agree with videogamesrock on this suggestion. It is not common for people to come here with so many traditional credits. Athabasca University is a Canadian school, but it does hold US RA accreditation (which is what you want). Yes the general Application / evaluation fees are higher than the Big3, but if it turns out your 'already done' it would be a great savings.
Also, if you do go this route please do come back and report the outcome so others can gain knowledge through your expedience.
