Metropolia for quick bachelor's degree to get in a master's program
#1
Your Location: Estonian living in Finland
Your Age: 19
What kind of degree do you want?: Fast bachelor's degree in IT/CS with the goal of getting in Helsinki/Aalto university MSc Computer Science.

I have the advantage of living in Finland, so Metropolia UAS seems like a no-brainer. My goal is to fly through UAS, and hopefully get into one of our top school's master's programs.

Getting into a master's program after that might be a piece of cake, they have a lot of room, because many people drop out of our universities after getting their bachelor's?

I'm looking at this Metropolia UAS program specifically:
Degree Programme of Information Technology - online studies 180 ECTS (price 579 euros)

I have years of coding in my background, and run a small software business, so I don't expect any difficulty with the actual studying part. There is a job experience/internship requirement, which I might be able to do through my own company.

Does anyone have experiences with Metropolia UAS, how did it go?

Does this sound realistic with some hard work and dedication?

EDIT: ADDENDUM

Budget: I can shill out 5k€ if necessary for papers, but I prefer to go the cheapest route. Metropolia should cost 579€ and nothing more?
Commitments: I am my own boss, and have no other commitments outside of that. Running my business doesn't necessarily have to take a lot of time commitment.
Dedicated time to study: I can do 40+ hour weeks, if that's what it takes. I'm already starting off from a strong knowledge level, but I also love learning new things and filling all my gaps. My main goal is getting bachelor's papers ASAP. Afterwards I'd like to try my luck at applying to highly regarded master's CS programs, such as University of Helsinki.
Timeline: I would like to finish the bachelor degree in 1-1.5 years
Tuition assistance/reimbursement: I am an EU citizen, otherwise paying out of pocket.
