Cyber security degree
#5
WGU is $3000 for 6 months. Courses are self paced and you complete as many as you are capable of per term. The faster you complete it, the cheaper your degree is.

As part of the program, you get these certifications:

Certified Cloud Security Professional (CCSP) – Associate of (ISC)² designation
Systems Security Certified Practitioner (SSCP) – Associate of (ISC)² designation
Certified Encryption Specialist (EC-Council ECES)
Certified Incident Handler (EC-Council ECIH)
Certified Internet Webmaster – Site Development Associate (CIW-SDA)
Certified Internet Webmaster – Web Security Associate (CIW-WSA)
A+ (CompTIA)
Network+ (CompTIA)
Security+ (CompTIA)
Project+ (CompTIA)
ITIL Foundation


Here are the courses, not including the general ed stuff. Many, but not all, courses will map to one of the certifications above, and your final exam will be the cert exam. These are included in your tuition, you don't pay extra to take these exams.

All classes are pass/fail, and depend solely on your passing of an exam, or a paper/project, or both in some courses.
