TESU CS BA degree plan

[rockstone_Q]

Back in August, I came up with a half-baked degree plan for a Math BA, but since then I've changed my mind, taken advice from members here and made something more complete. Attached below is the degree plan and a bare-bones spreadsheet for calculating cost. Do tell if anything's off, I want this finalized before dedicating the time to it.

Location: Brazil.
Age: 18 (in a few days).
Preferred degree type: STEM
Current credits: 0.
Budget: 8k and under.
Commitments: currently in senior-year of high school, will graduate in December. Doing art commissions as a side-hustle. Could get a trade job in the next year.
Timeline: 3 months for preparatory self-studying, 3-4 months for external courses, then the 16cr 3 months.
Certificates: Planning on doing a TOEFL iBT, as per TESU requirement.

Doing one more TESU course in the flat-rate program will save you 3k and you need 30RA credits total.

Linear Algebra I don't think that comes in as UL anymore. Though TESU might take this as a LL course.

I'm seeing TESU's acceptance of Coopersmith's Linear Algebra is shaky. Could I kill two birds with one stone and do Linear Algebra under TESU's term?

I'm not sure if anyone here has taken TESU's Linear Algebra recently. However, that is a definite possibility. I have spoken to someone who took Linear Algebra at (a European) university. They were very confused about the semi-requirement for knowledge of Calculus and the concept of LA being "difficult" at all. It's mostly "just" regular algebra, but with matrices. So, I would think that a student should be able to do the class as part of a 16-credit term, depending on how much work is actually given during the class.
