You should be able to use credit-by-exam within the Arts & Sciences section. Download the Student Guide to Credit by Exam and the Technology Catalog for more details:

Edit to add:
Does the catalog mention something about a limit? If so, you will need to get clarification on that.

An old EC Technology catalog I have mentions a limit on testing credits, but I don't know what that meant. Hopefully, it is no longer true. Be sure to read the new catalog carefully.

Generally, that depends a lot on your major and how many credits/courses are needed to finish it. It appears that you already have half of the credits for Computer Technology. Hopefully, another forum member can help you find a good source for the remaining credits/courses, which will also give you a better idea of the timeline.

Hi dthom,
I just looked up an earlier thread you started. I suggest you talk to your local education office about completing your CCAF degree. The CLEPs you can take for that should easily transfer in to EC since they are gen eds. Note that ALEKS is great for knocking out the math requirement for your BS degree, but it will not be acceptable for your CCAF degree. However, the College Math CLEP will do just fine. So basically you can kill two birds with one stone so to speak -- get your CCAF while testing towards your BS degree.
Your best bet regarding advice on how to progress for your BS degree will be for you to list what credits you already have, and then people will be able to tell where you are and advise you on how to get where you want to go.
And yes, I believe at least a couple other people here have at least discussed commissioning, but I don't recall hearing anything regarding completion and OTS acceptance.
Finally, check out the wiki and other links below, they are provided specifically to help you out.
Edit: I just realized you are deployed. Do you get much support/advice from your local ed office (such as it is)?
