I would suggest you sign up for Sophia and see how many courses you can do in maybe 2-3 months to get an idea of whether you want to hammer through something, or take more time. Then you can come back and let us know what you think.
And, BTW, Sophia will probably be easier than what you'd do with WGU or UMPI, but at least you'll have an idea of whether you can go through quickly or not.
That's a good idea, yes. Luckily, right now Sophia is also $149 for an entire year (see relevant thread for details). They have a lot of courses that transfer to WGU and UMPI.
BSBRose, UMPI does have degrees besides BSBA but that's what I mentioned because it's your WGU evaluation. And if it turns out that you don't like the competency-based approach, many Sophia courses also transfer to COSC. That's another cheap bachelor's degree source.
