I am planning to get a bachelor degree in finance and i would like to go to an online college like AIU; they said that it would last about 4 years (associate+bachelor) and that i would have to get an associate first that would cost about $21k + $30k for the bachelor=$51k.
Is that a good investment or should i go to a community college?
I live in the Saginaw-Detroit area.
The bachelor would cost

yes you must get the Associate first to obtain a bachelors degree
go to a Community College for the Associates
go to U of M Flint for the Bachelors
online degrees are laughed upon by most potential employers

You can not get Bachelor’s degree in a community college. You can only get Associate degrees.
But what you can do is….
Go to community college first. meet a counselor. Tell him you want to get Bachelors in Finance and you want list of transferable units in Finance to a University.
You will take courses for 1 to 2 years. These same courses are offered in a University, but cost a lot. You will save a lot of money this way. Then in your second year, apply to University of your choice and complete your Bachelors…which will be 2 more years.
You can also apply to Financial aid. You need to be very assertive in getting grants for your tuition.
Good luck

You don’t have to get an associates first to get a bachelors. An associates degree merely states that you graduated from a community college. Be careful at a community college when they tell you to get an AA degree. That is not your long-term goal. Since you want a bachelors degree, plan all of your course work to fulfill the requiements for that degree, whether or not the classes will earn an AA degree. That does not matter.
