So. I have this ongoing BS program in CS at a european public university, brick and mortar. However the program is terrifyingly broad, for example barely any coverage of networking. The environment is killing me as students are terrible, teachers are worse. On the other hand, there is is IU hochschule's online BS in Cyber Sec program. IU is private uni but fully accredited.

Which one would you choose for cyber sec career and maybe MSc in cyber sec / CS with cyber track ??

Are you hoping for the degree to teach you skills that will help you succeed in a technical CS career? or are you hoping to get a credential that will get you a job?
