Hi Everyone!!
Need a little bit of help with the following - I am employed in the field of aviation and have been flying for the last 5 years. I'm trying to get a college degree now in the fastest and most cost effective way.
I am interested in pursuing a BS degree in Technology/IT/Engineering, mostly by the Credit by exam route.
Since I'm relatively new to this field, and I haven't been able to find any degree plans (for credit by exam), and not many people have posted in the forum about the above degrees/fields, I wanted to ask you guys a few questions:
1. Is it possible to get a B.S in Technology/IT/Engineering completely through the credit-by-exam route? (except for the Capstone course which can't be transferred in)
2. If it is, then could someone please be kind enough to help me come up with a degree plan which helps me with which exams i need to write for credits for the same?
3. If it is not, what's the best science field B.S degree I can get through the Credits by exam route?
4. Which degrees have the most widespread popularity and common appeal for employment (as a backup line of work to my current job)
5. What would be a practical time frame for finishing the exams if I were to pursue a degree by the credit-by-exam route? I'm aware that people have written everything from 6 months to 1 year or even less in some cases....But I know that I won't be able to study full time, and can spend about 35-40 hours every week for the degree.
6. Has anyone looked at the University of London's International Program as a way of getting a degree? (Costs about 5000$, and takes 3 years for their BBA courses).
Apologies if I have repeated any questions, but I was unable to find the answers I require in the searches that I did regarding Bachelor's in the technology field. I also need to take a quick decision about which course to take and what the best route to take the course is, so I would genuinely appreciate help in this regard.
Thanks everyone!
