With the updated MSCSIA at WGU you can transfer in more than half the degree with certifications:
MSCSIA (wgu.edu) It doesn't actually start until next week, so no feedback is available yet, but hopefully people will start sharing on reddit soon after.

Wgu does not have master in computer science, but they have a very good program in master cybersecurity. I finished with the old program. In the new program, you can get more certifications and it is more recognized in the IT industry. If you want to know more. You can message me.

So now my question is, what is the fastest and easiest way to get a masters in computer science or related field? Should I continue at TESU or go to WGU or somewhere else? I like TESU because I live in NJ and the campus is here so it feels like it’s more credible around here vs WGU where people assume it’s a diploma mill. BUT I’m willing to go anywhere that’s easy…. As in I hate writing papers lmao but I guess that’s what grad school is, right? I actually have no clue the structure of courses in grad school… but yeah I’m just looking for the easier and fastest way. What do you guys think?
The fastest graduate degree in attack related field is definitely going to be one of those degrees from WGU. I'm pretty sure they have a master of science and information technology. They also have a Master's of Science in data analytics that I know folks have gotten done in one term.
The other option would be the master science and information technology management from Purdue university, which I heard people completing in 6 months or less.
If you want a master side to computer science that you can complete quickly, the shortest time I've seen is about one year. I would check the University of Colorado at boulders Master science and computer science that's offered through Coursera. I think the fastest you can complete that is about 10 months, but that would be going super intense and taking two courses per 8 week term.
From what I understand from talking with someone Ball State University in Indiana is offering a similar program for their Master science and computer science, but it looks like the assumed prerequisite knowledge isn't as intense as University of Colorado is.

I'm doing a CU Boulder masters on Coursera, and yes, the courses are all available on Coursera. The only differences between the "Coursera" versions and the "for credit" versions are additional assignments or final exams.

Can you tell me how much more from the coursera version please? Say there are 4-5 weeks on coursera version for a course and how much more added for the for credit version please? I am considering finishing all coursera version before upgrading it to paid for credit version to complete the add ons finals. Thank you.
