Degree Advice for Transferring Associate into Quick Bachelors? Thanks!

First, Excelsior does accept Sophia credits. But they're picky about which ones they accept and Sophia credits are only LL. Not super useful for someone who already has an an Associate.

That said, fastest/easiest will be whatever most interests you. For instance, the BABA Management & Leadership degree at UMPI is generally one of the fastest degrees, taking some students only 1-2 sessions (2 or 4 months) to complete. But if this subject matter bores you or is otherwise difficult for whatever reason, it could wind up taking 3 or 4 sessions.

If you can finish a UMPI degree in just a couple of sessions, it will be substantially cheaper than an Excelsior degree. 3 UMPI sessions + Sophia would come in under $5k. I'm not sure that SDC + Coopersmith (and maybe LawShelf) plus the required 7 Excelsior credits would also do that.
