Brown Mackie credits

[dfrecore]

First, I'm guessing that your friend has 96cr because it was a quarter-based school system and 96 x ⅔ = 64cr (and that would make each course worth 2.67cr).

I did a quick look at several degrees:

EXCELSIOR
--------------
BSB - this is where you're going to lose a bunch of credits, because there's very little room for free electives. 85cr/29 courses remain
BSL - will obviously be the most flexible, but prob not get you where you want to go - 58cr/20 courses remain
BPS - a great combo of the 2 above degrees, this is where you'll get the most bang for your buck: 61cr/21 courses remain

Everything can be done via alt-credit except 7cr at EC (you could do cornerstone & Info Lit in 1 8-week term and capstone in 2nd 8-week term). Tuition will be $4000.

WGU
--------------

The good news - they have a BSB in Healthcare Management, they take NA, AND they will accept the AA/AS degree as fulfilling the GE requirements. The bad news - no free electives, so you lose a lot of credits. But this degree may be the one your friend wants.

87cr remain after the GE courses are waived, and Business Comm comes in; here's what you can do:

Sophia
-------------------------
Intro to Business
Business Law
Principles of Finance
Project Management
Microeconomics
Macroeconomics

Study.com
-------------------------
Business 107: Organizational Behavior
Business 106: Human Resource Management
Accounting 101: Financial Accounting AND
Accounting 102: Intro to Managerial Accounting
Business 102: Principles of Marketing
Business 101: Principles of Management
Business 120: International Business
Business 212: Business Statistics
Communications 301: Diversity and Intercultural Communication
Business 315: Logistics & Supply Chain Management
*I'd say the last 2 are optional - you might have less work if you did them at WGU

If you did all of the above, you'd have 15 courses/45cr to complete at WGU. That's a lot (less than 2 weeks per class) but it's doable in 1 term.
--------------------------------------

If it were me, I'd do the WGU degree because it gets you what you want - Business AND Healthcare Management. But I'm sure others will chime in about why UMPI is a better option. They are a good option for many, but in this particular instance, I don't think they are the BEST option.
