TESU vs CMU vs FHSU for Computer Science ?

Which Computer Science program would you pick?

Links below for each program.

TESU - BA in CS (is less math heavy, 39 hours of CS major)

FHSU - BS in CS (Seems to have more major hours in CS (65 hours)

CMU - BA or BS in CS (difference between BA and BS is 8 hours of language vs 8 hours of analytics, only 40 major hours, with no Calculus requirements)

I see all those as pretty much equivalent in that none of those schools, nor CS programs, particularly stand out. They are all run of the mill RA colleges. As far as I know, none of them have gained ABET accreditation for their CS program. Not that ABET accreditation is required, it is a nice to have though.

Out of curiosity, did you intend to exclude the WGU CS program? I'd put that in the same academic ballpark as these. You could probably complete the degree quicker with a lower price point to boot. I have heard that WGU will be seeking ABET accreditation for their CS program once they have graduated enough students through their existing program to meet the criteria for assessment.
Working on: Debating whether I want to pursue a doctoral program or maybe another master's degree in 2022-23

Complete:
MBA (IT Management), 2019, Western Governors University
BSBA (Computer Information Systems), 2019, Thomas Edison State University
ASNSM (Computer Science), 2019, Thomas Edison State University
