Sorry, but no. Computer Science is about processor design, memory architecture, algorithms, programming languages, operating systems, etc. It doesn't get into applications -- that's for the EE people and the users.

So, would the CLEP computer course or the DSST computer course work for the TESC computer science requirement?

I was wondering about this (what exactly counts as Computer Science?) myself. At TESC, when you look at their list of online courses, they have Computer Information Systems, Computer Science Technology, and Computer Science. Which of these count as "Computer Science"?
Specifically, do you think the lone Computer Science Technology course (CMP-354 Network Technology) counts as "Computer Science"?
Also, what about credits that are transfered in from Certifications like A+, Network+, CCNA, Microsoft certs, etc?
