Hello all. I'll jump right into my question ?. I will be finishing up my Bachelor of Science in Liberal Arts with Excelsior around May. I have been in the IT field for around 12 years and plan on pursuing a 2nd degree with TESU in something IT related (BS Cyber Security or BS IT) .
My only reason for going with the BS in Liberal Arts was to obtain a degree ASAP as my current job was contingent upon me obtaining a Bachelors within a certain time frame.(this was part of my offer letter) The quickest route was BS in LA as I have a smorgasbord of credits from my JST (Navy), IT certifications, and other colleges that I have attended over the past 10 years.
Now that I can see the promise land of obtaining a Bachelors , I would like to start focusing on a degree that is more focused in my career field. 5-6 months ago I was accepted into TESU and had my transcripts evaluated. I'm wondering if I should go ahead and enroll with TESU and take one the TECEP exams in order to get "locked in" at TESU or wait until I actually finish my degree with Excelsior before enrolling at TESU? Are there any advantages/disadvantages to enrolling with TESU now?
