You would be far better off pursuing a non-traditional BS degree once you 
get started somewhere with your CIsco certification. Check out, for 
example, Phoenix University (about the only fully accredited online 
University I have seen), .. or I'm sure that the SIU campuses have online 
options by now.

An AA isn't worth much towards degree requirements (which, as mentioned, 
are almost always BS/BA)..
