Even if there are changes, once things are accepted, they stay accepted correct? I start CIS-351 in May which will end in July, and that will be my final class for CS.

Where are you taken this course?? I'm curious if the software engineer course from Saylor is accepted as an upper level course
I prepare my self I registered for the discrete math course at Oakton is less expensive, and they are offering it now for the summer semester. There are only 4 seats left if someone wants to join.
This is in case TESU don't accept this course anymore.

At TESU. Expensive, but it is what it is. When it's all said and done, I'll still be getting a bachelor degree for about 10K including the residency waiver, all the ACE classes I've taken, TESU classes, etc. 10K compared to a normal rate of a Bachelors that goes for 30-60K these days is still a heck of a deal.

A thousand dollars or so to take a course from TESU that is hard to get somewhere else is a worthwhile expense sometimes.

Obviously, if you want a math degree, you should get one. The thing I would question is getting the degree at TESU vs. another school where it might be cheaper overall, or might have better courses if you actually want to learn something from a course. Not that you can't learn from a TESU course, but it's going to be self-taught. I would much prefer to get that kind of major from a school where you actually have access to some good instructors, rather than the TESU model. So, I'd actually advocate for a MORE expensive degree rather than less expensive in that case.

July 1st is just a rumor. For all, we know nothing will change or the changes will be small.
July 1st and Jan 1st are usually when they announce a big change if there are any.

Right, you can always pivot to another degree worst-case scenario.
I meant pivot to a whole other school.

PUG doesn't have a BA/BS in Computer Science, so it would also be a different degree.

I was reading that one has 6 written assignment and the other you need to pass a multiple choice exam and score minimum of 70%

The TECEP won't count toward a flat-rate term or residency.

That part I know, but my question was which course model is easier to pass if someone has experience.
