Most computer science courses come into COSC as Non-Liberal Arts.
One of the good things with COSC - they allow a BSLS in addition to the BALS that TESU allows. That means that instead of 75% liberal arts courses, you can do 50%. So depending on what you have your courses in (or want to get) you could do a lot more business or other non-LA courses at COSC.
Also, they do bring in some Study.com courses that are LL as UL (and I'm sure it goes for LL courses from other schools/providers as well) - meaning you still might end up doing the same number of UL courses as at TESU.
I find that COSC is pretty easy to plan once you figure out how their degree plans work. 1) meet all of the GE requirements, using UL courses if possible (for instance, use Advanced Tech Writing to knock out your English Comp II requirement, if you were already going to take English Comp II as a course, it's not any extra work to do tech writing, and you get your UL at the same time; use an UL US History course to do your US History requirement; use an UL course to do your Global Understanding requirement; etc.). 2) plan your concentration; get those UL credits in there using LL courses if you can; 3) plan the rest of your UL credits, using LL courses if possible; 4) get that lab science requirement met (Study.com's Bio w/Lab is your cheapest option).
If you do everything step-by-step and maximize your UL, you can easily plan out your degree with them.
