I need help- need to finish BS in technolgy
#1
I am currently working as SAS programmer and having 5 years working experience in Technolgy field. I am trying to get my BS degree in computer science / Technolgy or in any other major as quickly as possible as I want to do master degree since i have only 3 year enginnering diploma from India which should get some transfer credits .
I would like to debate in between Excelsior or Thomas Edison . Does anyone have any opinions on which school is better.
While money is something I need to consider but a couple thousand is worth it if it means i can get my degree faster.

Thank you taking the time to read my long post I apreaciate your input.

Excelsior gives credit for many IT certifications including SAS (see link below). It may be worth taking the time to speak with someone in the Technology program. Excelsior is usually very responsive. Although their BS IT may take a little longer, it may be what you are looking for.

I believe Charter Oak offers both a technology and information systems degree. Depending on the tranferable credits and how well you can cram for exams you may be able to get done in a few months.

I wonder if you would be able to take the Computer Science GRE and get up to 30 credits at Excelsior. It could be worth asking them.
