I understand the overall point you're making, but IT is not CS. If you specifically want a CS degree and can get into GT's program, yeah it'd be pretty hard to beat what GT is offering. But if you're an IT professional specifically looking for IT programs, a CS degree probably isn't the way to go. You might be able to find a better path than WGU, but just picking CS because they're both "tech" related wouldn't be a good move unless you already have a CS background and not just IT.
