Here is my situation; I read your forum for awhile and figured that now that the kids are grown, I may as well start another project.  I decided to get a degree.  
I started with Sophia on 10/11.   I have been able to knock out a fair amount by avoiding those with Touchstones. (In that time I broke 2 ribs and was off work for a week, so I was in bed and able to really focus on Sophia.) 
Anyway, I was primarily looking at UMPI, but I am open to suggestions. 
40 years ago I went to college for a year on an athletic scholarship, but got hurt and quit.  
My career has been as a manager, so a lot of the business courses were pretty easy for me.  However, I work for the government and I am not looking to move up from my current position, so I am open to what the degree is in and where it comes from.  I suppose I am doing it to "check the box" because I feel like it was a mistake to quit years ago.  

My primary considerations are: 
I like taking as many Sophia and alternate sources as possible. 
I would like to complete as quickly as possible.  
Money is not a significant consideration.  
I have looked at degree plans and will dig further into them.  Right now I am hoping I gave enough information to get advice as to what may be the best school/program. And which classes I should focus on on Sophia. 

Thanks
