I am only just starting with COSC this fall.
It's pretty much about time and money for me, I already have 120 credit hours from three schools, I will still need another 45 on top of that. I certainly do not feel bad about testing out of any GEC classes I am missing. I have taken my share of classes that seemed like a waste of time.
I think a degree will help with job prospects / promotions. I think the type of degree matters more than the school, for me a degree in information systems from charter oak means about the same as a degree in information technology from the local school. Both are pretty general degrees I wouldn't expect the local one to do much more for me. Only difference really is the local one would take 3 or 4 times as long.
