Yeah, I considered (and asked around on the Discord) if I should try to get in one or two of those courses and the consensus was at this point, I should just take them at WGU, as taking them at Sophia or SDC wouldn't likely save me a term and thus would cost me more money. Made sense.

I went to WGU, and I wish I had brought a tiny bit more in. What courses do you need? You should consider bringing the additional coursework in, especially with something like Sophia, where you can complete a course in 1-3 days. Just my $0.02

Again, I considered that and decided it wasn't worth it at this point. The only courses I have remaining that can be opted-out of via ACE credit are...
- C175: Data Management - Foundations
- C173: Scripting and Programming - Foundations
- C170: Data Management - Applications

Two of those are available on Sophia and one is on SDC. The cheapest I could bring these in for would be $99 for one or two Sophia courses, $200 for the SDC course, or $299 for all of them. (I could conceivably do one of them on Saylor for $5 but I dunno if even that is worth the pain of Saylor.)

Even if money wasn't a consideration... I'm starting in February, and the latest I'd be able to turn in completed courses in order to get them evaluated in time is January 5 (ie: two days from now).

I'll just take them at WGU.
Current: WGU BS, Cybersecurity and Information Assurance (093/122 credits)
