Hello Everyone,
I've been studying at TESU since I got out of high school in 2016. I initially only planned to do a BSBA in Accounting, but when I found out I was deploying with the US Army right around the time that SDC released a number of computer science courses I made the decision to pursue a 2nd degree in Computer Science.
I am on track to finish the accounting degree with no issues (only waiting on one grade to finalize). However, an audit resulted in me being 1 credit short in my CS AOS. Application for March graduation is due no later than JAN 1 and I'm kind of panicking that I won't make it in time. My UL classes in the AOS are as follows:
SDC Management Information Systems
SDC Systems Analysis and Design
SDC Database Management
TEEX Computer Security (2Cr.)
In email correspondence with TESU I have been told that new TEEX courses are no longer applied to the CS degree. I have a 2Cr. Upper Level ACE course for CISSP 2018 that I did with the US Army. This apparently will also not work. My point of contact recommended the CMP 354 TECEP, but seeing how December term has already started, this is also not really an option. I've also looked into SDC's more recent UL CS courses like Artificial Intelligence. However, I was told that TESU is not taking any of these at the moment.
For any future readers looking at the same issue, DSST Cybersecurity is an option. I am unable to take this exam though because we do not have a proctoring center on the camp.
I'd really appreciate if any of you have advice on what I should do and any courses that may work.
A side note... The reason it is so important that I graduate on time is I am National Guard and do not have a job to go back to after this deployment. I've been offered a job position, but it is tentative on my completion of the CS Degree.
Thank you in advance for the replies.

TESU March 2020 Graduation
--ASNSM Mathematics
--BSBA Accounting
--BA Computer Science
University of Alaska Fairbanks (December 2021 Graduation Goal)
--MBA (2/10 : 4.0)
I started this journey in the summer of 2016. I hoped to be done sooner, but I am still proud of the rate at which I have gotten my schooling done with respect to the many months of military training and deployments I have undergone.
