Newly admitted, 24 credits remain for a BA Comp Sci!

If you can't parlay a SWDev degree into something, I don't think a CS degree will be of much use.  You aren't really going to learn a lot that will help more than what you've already done.

I had the same initial reaction. It sounds to me like it's more likely that the OP needs development experience more than he needs another degree. That may mean doing open source or hobby work to start. It may also mean finding a lower level dev job, perhaps as a test engineer, before trying to get a full fledged software engineering job.

Finally, I think the OP knows this, but any courses you take from TESU, WGU, or the alt credit providers, will be you teaching yourself the material. The TESU mentors are of limited help, and there's no lectures.
