Not sure if this can be done online though.

A lot of schools have combo undergrad/grad degrees in 4/5 years. They're typically on campus programs. Nothing in this website says anything about online. A really good GPA is a requirement of this program. I don't see anything about alternative credit. It does mention AP credit. Those who entered the program with AP can potentially complete the program in 4 years. These are the Northwestern U degrees available online:

They have a Data Science master's. Seems like lots of folks are looking for data analytics or data science.

In the world of Social Work it's fairly common for someone to earn their BSW and then get advanced placement in an MSW program so that they can finish in 1 year. So this creates a 5 year BSW-MSW program. I have not checked to see if this can be done online but I know that there are plenty of online programs at both levels. I wouldn't be surprised.

Yup, this is pretty common for many degrees in different areas of studies as well. I really like Bachelors to Masters programs that take 1 year off study, it really does save energy/money/time... Northwestern is a very good school, they're ranked pretty high up the list, I don't think they have any degrees that are online, just "short courses", not remotely enough for the full degree.
BTW, this is in the degree planning subforum. It may be better placed in the General Education or other subform as it doesn't have much to do with planning a degree.

I intend to pursue the bachelor's to master's program in cybersecurity at TESU. The courses are things I need anyways for my BS, so why not save some time and money by taking the graduate versions. I'm just waiting for the current term to finish so I have a GPA at TESU, then I'll apply.

Where are you taking grad courses without having a bachelor's degree?

Undergraduate students at TESU can take up to twelve graduate credits, depending on their program. Tuition is at the undergrad rate, which is a nice savings.
