19 year old International Student needs your help
#1
Question 
Your Location: Northrhine Westphalia, Germany
Your Age: 19
What kind of degree do you want?: I will elaborate further in my message below.
Current Regional Accredited Credits: 0

Current ACE, CLEP, or NCCRS Credits: 0

Any certifications or military experience?

Unfortunately no

First of all, I am glad to have found this forum so early in my life. I am new to Forums to be exact this is the first Forum I signed up for that I actually end up using. Due to personal circumstances I had to drop out of highschool in germany back in 2020. If I want to go the traditional german highschool route I cannot expect to graduate until 2025! So I decided to take my GED as my family and I will be moving to the US in 2023. As someone who has been born and raised in germany with the german school system college credits are new to me but I've roughly figured out everything by now. I read a lot of threads in this forum but sadly there are some things I find hard to research even after looking in the Wiki, for example: I see users talking about transferring credits into an CUNY Associates (there is no such thing as an Associates in Germany only BA/BS,MA/MS etc. everything below is basically highschool education or an apprenticeship/trade) now the problem is I want to start now and currently I only hold my germany passport with no residency or citizenship for the US as we will move through the work of my parents. Now I have some questions that I hope you guys might be able to answer:
Is it possible to attend CUNY online for me or should I go with UMass Global ? 
Does it even make sense for me to pick CUNY over UMass Global?
I'm asking this because I am not sure wether some employees take UMass Global serious. 
Can you still transfer 90 ACE credits into UMass Global? 
How long would it take me to finish it with 0 credits to my name? 
Can someone help me with a degree plan? 
I would like to get a BBA in Information Systems Management but to be honest any degree I could acquire fast would be godsent for me in my situation so I am open for recommendations but if it is possible to be done fast I am definetly picking a business major preferably Information Systems Management as stated above. 
I hope I haven't broken any rules by writing such a paragraph  I am still new to all this forum stuff.

Also sorry for my grammar or spelling, english isn't my first language.



Greetings from Cologne!
