I have two AAS in Computer Science-Networking/Web Technology already. I'm waiting on my transcript so I can transfer to either a traditional four year college or do this...

I can test out completely of a BA or a BSBA(Bachelor of Science Business Administration). I can do this by taking equivalency tests like CLEP and DSST. I would have to take about 20 tests. These schools are Regionally Accredited, so it's not like University of Phoenix. They have real campuses with real teachers. Thoughts on this? Or should I try to focus on Certifications?

Here's an example degree plan:
Look up Degree Forum -Sanantone' BSBA General Management
Here's the degree on their website:
Look up Thomas Edison State College BSBA Computer Science

Sources of credit: Information Technology (IT) Vendor Certification Examinations (Microsoft, CompTIA, etc.), Graduate Record Examinations (GRE) Subject Tests, Defense Activity for Non-Traditional Education Support (DANTES) Subject Standardized Tests, DSST, Thomas Edison College Examination Program (TECEP), Ohio University Examinations)

There are the "Big Three" distance learning schools that are regionally accredited, Excelsior, Thomas Edison, and Charter Oak College. These three colleges not only specalize in distance learning degree plans, but they are unique in that their plans offer a 0% residency requirement (i.e. no minimum courses that must be taken directly at the college).
