Hi All,
Does anyone do BS in Data Science and Analytics at TESU.?
What's it like taking statistics.com courses?
Thanks

It's actually one of the more expensive TESU degrees due to the lack of flexibility. After realizing that, most students opt for TESU's CS degree. So, you're not going to get many responses, unfortunately.
In progress:
TESU - BA Computer Science; BSBA CIS; ASNSM Math & CS; ASBA
Completed:
Pierpont - AAS BOG
Sophia (so many), The Institutes (old), Study.com (5 courses)
ASU: Human Origins, Astronomy, Intro Health & Wellness, Western Civilization, Computer Appls & Info Technology, Intro Programming
Strayer: CIS175, CIS111, WRK100, MAT210

I know some people that have gotten it. It's different than the normal TESU degree, pretty fast-paced because you take a while (maybe 2 years) to do the courses on Statistics.com. They only offer them a specific way, and you have to do them in order up to a point. They go very quickly. It's doable, but not easy. Nice thing is there's no capstone.

If more alts transferred in, I'd have probably gone for this. To be honest CS is going to be more versatile for me, but there were just so many courses of little practical use (I'm never going to be a regular programmer unless something weird happens in my life), whereas all the data science/analytics would have some relevance. For all practical purposes, if you can grab some data science oriented credits, you'll do fine with a CS degree to get into DS. If I was worried about time and money, I'd just go do six months at WGU and see how many grad micro-credentials I could pick up in their analytics track after the BACS
