You can then come back to a Texas University for your graduate program, example is in the AI, CS, Cybersecurity, Data Analytics/Science, and whatever else available between Coursera or Edx partnerships, you can go for Georgia Tech or UTexas - Austin, or something similarly ranked.
Oh no, I'm already close to finishing my undergrad at TESU. My term ends next week and I'll be at 99 credit hours. I'm taking 2 Saylor courses and 2 Study.com courses, then a final 9-credit hour semester at TESU in August to finish.
What I'm looking for is after that. I am a Coursera subscriber and did their IBM cybersecurity certification, which counted as 6 credit hours at TESU. I'm considering doing Google's cyber program as well.
There are several ~$10k programs through MOOCs. Georgia Tech, ASU, UT, etc. Eastern.edu, Presque Isle, the list goes on and on.
