You can pursue any bachelor's degree you want to. If you have completed an associates degree, the amount of courses that can be transferred from the associates degree will depend on which bachelor's degree you choose.

Do not choose a bachelor's degree solely on the amount of credits you can transfer, but because it will lead you to your overall career goals and objectives.
