So to start, let me get the funds ready for the tests.

I noticed there is one CLEP testing centre available in Dakar, Senegal. I will have to book a flight to that place for it. 

Meanwhile, can you suggest a syllabus or a course package I can upgrade myself with in order to help me get credits from either one of the universities or anywhere I can get some credits? 

My area of interest is Computer Science and a bit of Electronics.

Please, please do NOT go to Senegal for CLEP testing! I'm showing that is $600+ round-trip, PLUS hotel costs. PLUS CLEP exam fees. And you would only be able to take a few CLEP exams per day (I think the most anyone has ever done is 4 or 5 per day), most students only manage 2 or 3 exams. That's very, very expensive. There are much, MUCH, MUCH better options for you than CLEP exams.

You can do the exact same courses, at home, on Sophia.org. You are allowed to complete as many courses as you are able to and the total cost for Sophia.org is only $99/month. Sophia courses can be completed in 1 day or less. Once you take into account travel times, etc., Sophia will be both faster and cheaper than flying to another country. 

You do not need CLEP exams.

You should not take CLEP exams.

Please read the wiki regarding what you need to take to get a degree from TESU.

CLEP exams would only cover SOME of these requirements: https://degreeforum.miraheze.org/wiki/Sa...ts_Roadmap

CLEP exams do not cover these requirements: https://degreeforum.miraheze.org/wiki/Sa...ience_Plan

Thanks for the caution given. Let me start from here.

1) I'm copy/pasting a portion of what I typed in post #8.  You really need to follow steps and not jump from place to place thinking you'll save money by doing CLEPs, you're on a 'one-track mind' mentally right now.  Following through with recommendations is exactly what you need to do.

2) Review the link in post #2, You need to complete the template and last post addendum, the more details the better so we can help you easier.  You don't have to sit in a classroom, you can follow the steps we will provide later.

3) I also highly recommend the roadmap link to the degree plan for a TESU BACS on post #6, the reason is UMPI doesn't have a Comp Sci option and TESU would be your best bet.

Actually, better yet, I'm quoting what Rachel83Az mentioned, those two links is all you need!!!
