I'm in my 20s. Still young though..ahaha
Never attended college yet until this year.
I have my reasons..
I'm planning to attend a community college in my state, take all my computer courses and requirements for my degree at Thomas Edision and transfer for my AAS in Computer Studies.
I'm taking courses relavent to my interest in computer forensics (Cyber Security,Network Forensics..etc) as well as a few other courses needed.
Thomas Edison State College: Applied Computer Studies
Courses I'm taking at my community college will be relavent to a Bachelors/Master dual degree at Excelsior College as well.
Excelsior College | Program Details
Here's the Degree Chart

What I want to know is, how does the whole process work? How long will it take?
Any way I can CLEP for this?
So, is this degree sorta of like a Individualized Degree? Do they just accept any computer courses relavent to my created "Area of Studies"?
What's the total cost alone concerning transfering and applying to Thomas Edision?
What's the total cost alone concerning transfering and applying to Excelsior College?
How do I explain my Associate I earned from Thomas Edision on my future resume?
How do I explain my Bachelors/Masters I earned from Excelsior College on my future resume?
Will it be something like..
Thomas Edision State College | 2012-13
Associate of Applied Science in Computer Studies
Emphasizing in Computer Forensics and Health Care
I also would like to know if I can use my Financial Aid from my community college at Thomas Edision and Excelsior College? Is it even necessary once I completed my Thomas Edision AAS degree already at my community college and still waiting for my transfer?
