I was told that any technology-based class more than 5 years old would probably be rejected. Dfrecore's advice is really good and his comparison between the two should give you a lot to think about.

Dfrecore is correct that the cornerstone and the capstone cannot be done at the same time and would probably require another set of fees.

Another credit source that is sometimes forgotten for COSC is Shmoop. The classes are not very good and can be mind-numbing, but it is hard to beat being able to take as many classes as you want for a low monthly price. Some of them can be completed very fast. I did a majority of my studies through them due to a tight budget and COSC accepted all but Business Communication for some reason.

Thank you Ztkerls.  Good to know there's another COSC student here.  

Correct me if I am wrong, isn't COSC's fee $300 per semester?  If John has to do a cornerstone & capstone that requires 2 semesters, that's still probably cheaper than $7k at WGU - or even $3500 (for one term).

I had completely forgotten about Shmoop.  We'll revisit them.

Good to know. Thank you Nosey.
