Hi everyone,
Excited to get everyone's feedback on this. I am planning on going into WGU's IT Management BS program, my main career goal is to be a Project Manager in tech, I am already approved to take the PMP test, I have many years of work experience (15+). I decided to go back to school and I have been feeling like I am getting a lot of rejections from big companies because I don't have a degree. I wanted to do the Comp Sci degree but fear it might be too difficult, so I am planning on the IT Management. I had zero credits, and have already completed 12 Sophia courses, on my last one now, English Comp 2.
Just started the batch of classes on Study.com, a lot of which I got from Josh Madakor's BS ITM - Study.com Degree Guide.
Here is my current degree plan.
My goals are:
-Graduate as fast as possible. This has me wondering whether I should keep doing study.com or go straight to WGU? The Study classes seem really lengthy.
-Graduate WGU on 1 term. This is mostly for financial reasons and speed. I need to check if I qualify for any scholarships.
I am planning on starting WGU maybe next March if I can keep up with this current plan, so I don't think I can apply for any financial aid until then.
Would love to get everyone's input. Thank you very much.
