Computer Science Degree Needed

[lifted567]

@lifted567, get the max transferred into the degree, if you have the energy/time to do the 'pre-study' for the certs, do them at WGU instead of paying out of pocket.

Makes sense! Looks like the MSIT track requires a lot more courses to be taken at WGU which I'm trying to avoid. Tbh I'm looking to "check the box" for a degree to be eligible for a promotion so spending a lot more time for a Masters doesn't seem worth it to me. Getting the PMP cert will probably be my next step after a Bachelor's.

They seemed turned off by the idea of TESU in general. One of our offices is near TESU so maybe they know something I don't? They essentially said find a school local to me in Florida or would consider WGU depending on the degree.

That's a shame. Some people are biased for no good reason. Pretty sure there are no inexpensive FL schools, and almost certainly none that can be done "quickly".

What about a Business degree from UMPI? Maybe BABA Project Management & Information Systems.

It was a dagger in the heart for sure. I mean, it's my fault as I should've verified all this before starting but I was excited to after reading all the information here and didn't want to wait weeks for responses from HR. I've been searching for Florida based schools and you're right, either they don't allow any/a lot of alternative transfer credits and/or they follow the traditional term structure which I really don't want to do.
