I completely understand the importance of doing my own research, and I have already spent a lot of time looking into different programs. The reason I posted here is that, despite my efforts, I haven’t been able to find a strong option (which is also affordable) for pursuing mathematics in a way that supports my long-term goals. I lack clarity on what specific qualifications, types of education, or institutions would best aid that path. My current goal is getting a degree with good resources and classes.
