Planning Bsc CS international student
#1
Big Grin 
Your Location: Denmark
Your Age: 28
What kind of degree do you want?: Computer science or alike
Credits:
Budget: No budget
Commitments: No commitments
Dedicated time to study: Full time, as much as possible
Timeline: done as soon as possible. No longer than 1.5 years.

I have completed the following courses in an unfinished applied math degree:

Calculus for math
Algebra 1
Linear algebra
Discrete math
Numerical analysis
Combinatorial mathematics
Differential equations 1
Mathematical statistics
Algorithms and data structures
Measure theory
Computational statistics
Scientific programming

112,5 ECTS, GPA: 3.5 average.

Right now im considering SNHU india or TESU double major CS/CIS or CS/MATH.
For SNHU im worried about the max transfer credit, as i see mentioned. Will i be able to
transfer 90 credits? Otherwise it will take too long to complete.

Are there any other options for international students? Is metropolis still an option? I
Don't see it mentioned in many other threads.

I plan to study a master in data science afterwards, so there might be another undergraduate
which is more fitting, and where i can get credit for my math/stat courses. Will I even be
able to get credit for completed courses at a university in Denmark?

How do i tackle this? Do i just pick a sample degree plan from the wiki and go study?
I'm overwhelmed by information and unsure which questions to ask

EU passport holding students can still sign up at least for some of the Finnish colleges. You should get your European credits evaluated by an accepted service like Wes, Spantran or Scholaro with GPA which costs 200 usd. If they are not in English, they will also need an English translation.

Basically, I would apply to the few programs that are on the WIKI, such as the CS/IT related degrees mentioned within posts and threads. I would search for what SNHU and TESU requires and create a spreadsheet to compare what can and can't be transferred. Once you know all the alternative credits you can transfer, you can decide which degree/institution you want to finish at. I highly recommend trying to get a balanced mix/match trifecta of certs, degree, experience...

The SNHU CS Wiki plan does have 90+ available transfer credits
https://degreeforum.miraheze.org/wiki/SN...egree_Plan

How it basically works is:
1. You pick a college.
2. You pick a major.
3. You pick the degree plan.
4. You plan everything out with a spreadsheet.
5. You start taking courses, usually starting with Sophia.
Degrees: BA Computer Science, BS Business Administration with a concentration in CIS, AS Natural Science & Math, TESU. 4.0 GPA 2022.
Course Experience:  CLEP, Instantcert, Sophia.org, Study.com, Straighterline.com, Onlinedegree.org, Saylor.org, Csmlearn.com, and TEL Learning.
Certifications: W3Schools PHP, Google IT Support, Google Digital Marketing, Google Project Management

Thanks i had no clue about the procedure  Blush . I've requested the required documents and went with SDR Educational Consultants. Reading recent reddit threads about WES and Spantran made me look in other directions.
