I have a MANY health science/ nursing credits and I was going to apply for the BS in Business Admin. there, but truth be told, I'm looking for the quickest route to a Bachelors degree. Preferably NOT a Liberal Arts degree, but if the difference between a B of Arts vs. a BS/BA in something else is more than 10+ classes worth, then I would probably reconsider a B of Arts. I am looking at the application now and going through it. I'm afraid my health science credits may not really transfer as well into Business as they would somewhere else. If that's the case, do they make suggestions on what degree you should go for? Say, for instance, would they approach you and kind of say something like "Hey, I see you applied for this degree, but your credits would actually speed up the process of graduating if you chose this degree"? I feel like they wouldn't because they are in this to make money..not sure! :nopity: hilarious
I am not so sure that they make recommendations but I do know that two days after I changed from degree from psych to business I had my eval. I would say that if you have more credits in the general education area (sciences, math, arts, etc) I would go for a BA degree. This is because 9/10 times you will end up wasting some credits that you have. If you did the BSBA option you would have to take all the required core courses and electives for business (if you have none or little credits in business). Do you have an a break down of your credits to look at? If so pleas post and I will try to help you out to see what areas you could apply the most to. Im getting pretty good at this eval thing

I was able to present my case and gain another 4 credits, maybe 1 more too (im waiting for a response). So now I have about 45/46 credits until completion.
