Hmm if you really want to get that second degree, for Excelsior, just like advisors for TESU, I would recommend getting in contact with someone who can help or go up the chain to the registrar if needed. As I mentioned earlier, it may be better to go the Masters route instead as you don't really need the second bachelors, that's what your advisors at Excelsior would say as well because you need 30 different credits.
Get this, if you do the BSLA with 21 Arts/Sciences and 9 Applied Studies UL credits, you're done... You apply for the multiple academic award to get the BSPS, you need to get the UL/major requirements completed, that's the main difference, you can use Lawshelf, Saylor.org, whatever else that is ACE/NCCRS that can transfer into the degree and pay the extra capstone to finish the BSPS, you can have a concentration in Business, Tech Management, etc.
Here's an example from last year on the sister board, for reference you may want to read the entire thread, but here is my take along with the reasons in several posts following it, I know Excelsior will allow this, you just need to know who to talk to: https://www.degreeinfo.com/index.php?thr...ost-556434
