@rarebird, Welcome to the board, that's a good intro post with some good details, but you've not completed the addendum or template fully to give us an even bigger overview of your scenario. Which province are you in? Which institution did you get the degree from? Please update us with the info here: https://www.degreeforum.net/mybb/Thread-...Area-works
Even with D grades, I would still recommend applying to institutions that don't accept it, you shouldn't waste time on re-doing the course either. It really depends on you, how you want to complete the courses, how you study, what really matters is finishing the degree of your choice. For transfer credit reference, see below.
Excelsior accepts anything above a C-, again, they take 113 credits, you can have the remaining come through ACE/NCCRS, Foreign credits or those that come through from Nationally Accredited institutions. https://www.excelsior.edu/start-with-mor...uidelines/
TESU accepts anything above a D, again they take 114 credits, you can have the remaining come through the same as Excelsior, except they don't take NA and the English Comp plus AOS classes has to be a C or higher. https://tesu.smartcatalogiq.com/current/...n-grading/
UMPI accepts anything above a C-, they require 30 residency credits, they accept RA, ACE credits to a max of 90 transfer credits, here's an archive link http://catalog.umpi.edu/content.php?catoid=5&navoid=206
Your best bet is to go for TESU BACS/BS CIS double degree for undergrad or UMPI BABA PM & IS, then use UMPI MAOL or WGU MSML for graduate (if you wanted to ladder upwards to a Masters). If you wanted the MBA later on, WGU MBA or the HAU MBA for $3K after scholarship would be best. Keep us updated on which institutions you apply to...
