Information Technology Degree?
#10
A BSBA will actually put you at a disadvantage for jobs where you'll be competing with IT, engineering, and computer science majors, especially if you don't have any experience. Like I said earlier, you can sell a BSBA in Computer Information Systems as an IT-related degree, but it won't be as good as an IT or computer science degree. You can learn business and CS/IT concepts on your own, so it's a matter of choosing what will be the best for getting you the job. Honestly, the BSBA will make it harder for you to get a job in the IT field. However, a BSBA in CIS might be your most affordable option.

WGU and other competency-based programs are fine if you are receiving financial aid or you can afford to pay close to $10,000 or maybe even more out of pocket. The longer you take, the more expensive these programs get. Don't choose a competency-based program if you can't finish a large number of credits within a short period of time.
