Fastest/Cheapest Way to get a Business Marketing Degree

[dfrecore]

Older credits transfer in just fine.  If you have 24+ RA credits, yes to the Big 3, you can get an associates free on route to your Bachelors if you graduate the same time.  And several Competency Based (CBE) programs will grant you an Associates/Bachelors combo as long as you complete 25% residency requirements at that college or university.  

List all your credits and provide us more info, such as family commitments, work, etc - You need to decide the amount of energy, money, time you can dedicate to this educational journey, you also need to see which degree/school fits more before jumping in... if you have no time, then the Big 3 would be best, if you have no commitments, then a CBE option works!

Actually EC limits how old credits can be for their BSB degree - 15 years for the business component courses.  But they don't require that you have any RA credits, so that's worth looking at.  They're also cheaper than TESU by quite a bit.  Don't get an AA, as you have to pay for an A.S. Capstone there - $1500 extra is definitely not worth it if you're already going to get a B.S.

TESU allows for a "free" BS after an AS, but only within a year.  So if you pay the residency waiver fee (currently $3200) to graduate with your AA, and then you don't apply to graduate with your BS within a year, you have to pay the RW Fee again (and it most likely will be more expensive at that point).

COSC has an AA, with no extra cost to get it on the way to a BS - but it's just a general AA and won't do much to help you, nor your resume.

WGU does not have an AA.

UMPI doesn't either that I'm aware of.
