If I could spend $7k a year for 2-3 years, and complete a WGU Software Development, that would be great. I could take the few cert exams pre-WGU, and take some of the other classes at 3rd party sites. I think there is also a "WGU Express" program, where you can take some of the simpler classes. Maybe I could take a college loan to smooth out the costs, since I tend to panic when I have no income.
I have not programmed in Java in long long time, and I never worked in C#, does anyone have any experience with the WGU/SD Jave or C# tracks? I read online that the original track was Java, but they added C#, and much of the material is still Java-centric. If that is still true, I guess I would just go with the Java track, though at this point I think C# has a brighter future (since Oracle seems intent on profiting from Java).
Study.com seems to have a bunch of courses that transfer to WGU. I guess I will apply at WGU with my existing credits, and see how many I need to finish. Then I can take the certs first, use Study.com after that, and finally enroll in WGU.
