I want to graduate quickly (preferably 1 term) and take the minimum courses possible at PUG. Main motivation is to parlay this Associate's into a top-up CS or IT degree in the UK.
90 credits are required. A maximum of 67 credits can be transferred.
I already have the AWS Cloud Practitioner cert and have almost completed the Google IT Support Professional cert. W3S PHP cert will be done soon too. I've attached a spreadsheet laying out what certs/courses I think I'll have to take and their equivalents at Purdue. I may have included 1 or 2 courses more than are necessary.
Also, do you all know if two concentrations are possible? I emailed PUG but their reply didn't address my query at all.
Links: While there are plans for a Bachelor degree from PUG here, I couldn't find plans for an Associate's. I'll be greatful for your help.
The bachelor's IT degree plan will show all the courses you need for the associate's degree

It looks like your cost for this associate's degree will be $8533.
PUG will only let you take 2 courses per term, so you won't be able to do everything in one term.
Given the cost/time, you may be better off going for the bachelor's IT degree.
