BS or bust - TESU BS in Data Science and Analytics

[Jep]

I don't know if GWU will be a good fit. Their program is pay just one flat rate tuition per 6 month term regardless of the number of units you complete. They advise you to take at least 12 credits each term and be able to commit 15-20 hours per week. With a full time job and 2 small kids, I don't know if I can commit that much time every term.
GWU also said my work experience doesn't translate to course credits, but serves as a requirement to be accepted into the BS Data Management/Data Analytics program.

I did get accepted into TESU and I'm leaning towards that route. They just have to get back to me on what credits they'll accept.

Do I wait for TESU to get back to me on the credits or do I start looking at the GE courses to take from SL, Saylor, etc.?
Also, is it a good or bad thing that the TESU BS DSA program doesn't have a capstone? Are those good for future marketability for employers or it doesn't really matter?
