TESU CIS - courses - studyandpass5 - 06-12-2017

I'm getting ready to start my junior year (woohoo!) and am thinking about taking more of my core requirements, such as some computer classes (programming, electives etc; anything that will fit in my degree) since I have no knowledge of anything computer/technical related and would like to get started. Upon further research, there were not as many computer classes as I was thinking that I could test out of. I thought Straigterline had a bunch, but from what I could see they only had a handful, if that. CLEP has none, and DSST has maybe 3 I could take.
Does anyone have any recommendations for some core classes that I could either test out of or take a class online somewhat affordably? Thanks a bunch!

I would take the courses available from Straighterline (IT Fundamentals and then Programming C++) and Study.com if they have anything.
You should supplement them with the courses available at your local community college, find the general education and lower level classes.

Here are the ones I have for TESU's BSBA-CIS degree. There may be additional ones.

Programming with C++ (COS-213) - SL
Info Systems Analysis and Design (CIS-320) - CSU-Global CBE
Computer Concepts & Applications/IT Fundamentals (CIS-107) - TECEP/SL
Intro to Computer Science I (COS-101) - Saylor
Intro to Computer Science II (CIS-103) - Saylor
Network Technology/Computer Communications & Networks (CMP-354) - TECEP/Saylor
Management Information Systems/Strategic Information Technology (MIS-301) - Saylor/DSST/Ed4Credit
Fundamentals of Cybersecurity (CIS-344) - DSST
Cloud Computing and Big Data (CIS-499) - CSU-Global CBE
Intermediate Networking (???) - CSU-Global CBE
Software Engineering (CIS-351) - Saylor

I also recommend getting these pre-approved before taking them, as TESU regularly changes their mind about what will come into that degree.
