Open Electives on Purdue Global - Overlord - 08-15-2022
I was making a degree plan for BS in Cloud Computing. I've all but finalized the courses and sources of alternate credits for the Core Requirements and Major Requirements. When it comes to Open Electives, do I get to choose any and all courses they offer across departments or am I allowed to only pick and choose from a set of courses? Would really appreciate any and all help.

Are you going with an ExcelTrack? That one you have to work with your academic advisor on because everything isn't available every term.

PUG Program page PDF with all the required courses, it doesn't say anything about the Electives. It should be anything you want.

Here's a degree plan on the wiki for reference as well: https://degreeforum.miraheze.org/wiki/PUG_Cloud_Computing_Degree_Plan

No I'm not going with ExcelTrack. Is there a list of some sorts where they list available courses?

Wake up, Neo Overlord...
We hack degrees here. We can get you in and out of Purdue Global in 6 months (2 terms) with a bachelor's degree.
You want to bring in as many cheap alternative credits as possible so that you only have to do 8 or 9 courses at Purdue Global to get your degree.
Clockhammer was going to do Cloud but switched to IT after Purdue changed how Cloud certification would count for courses. Both degrees are good degrees though and there are plans for each of them.

I do want the Red Pill Morpheus. I just wanted to know if I can really just choose *anything* because that makes it a lot easier.

It's a lot easier to take as few courses as possible with Purdue Global.
Can you post the degree plan you made?

I'm still looking at the electives. If all goes to plan, I'll have 47 credits from Purdue and 133 transferred credits.

Ok. I hope your plan involves ExcelTrack because the other way would be at least twice the cost and likely take longer too.

I do want it to involve ExcelTrack. But they state work experience and prior college credits as requirements. Both of which I lack.
