RBA degree question

I live in Massachusetts. I'm earning My RBA through Marshall University because:
1) They took my entire Pierpont BOG AAS as a block transfer. All of my Sophia courses were applied without issue when I send the transcript through Parchment.
2) WVROCKS UL courses are only available to RBA students, which are $250 per credit and delivered entirely online. In my state, community college classes cost at least that much.
3) The academic forgiveness policy that the BOG program has also applies to RBA. All failing grades more than 4 years old can be excluded from your GPA, but you become ineligible for honors.

They also waived the $100 enrollment fee and the class descriptions list if they are writing intensive, which are a nice bonus.
