UMPI or WGU

[Deity]

Hello,

I am looking to get a bachelors degree in accounting. I have been working in a unrelated field and decided a couple years ago that it was time for a change in careers. I started back at my local community college to start working towards this new path. I finished a associates degree and am enrolled through a four year college. Decided this was going to take to long probably around four years to complete. Distance and time is causing me to be a part time student. Since the loss of hours at work and drive time would be significant i started looking into other ways to complete the degree. My options now are these colleges you have been talking about in the forums and going to a different four year university. The new four university would be closer due to a satellite office that is twenty minutes from where i live. It would cost 18k to do that option. I really don not want to spend that much if I do not have to. So now I am here looking for help. I was looking into WGU and UMPI your pace. I am currently enrolled in a statistics coarse through the community college to finish the pre req for the four year. If can drop this and use study.com or sophia to complete this i would be more than happy to drop at my community college. I think its important to be able to sit for the CPA exam when i am done if that helps.
