Coursera Bachelor of Science in Computer Science for $4k!

[Tomas]

As stated I'm already in the industry as a junior, and with the intention of future-proofing and securing better jobs going forward, I think BSc in CompSci would be really beneficial (just the knowledge alone, but having it through an institution with structured learning and some investment to keep myself accountable is what helps the adherence). If anybody has some reasons why/why not to suggest to me, or to address some of these concerns, or to suggest alternative online bachelors degree programs in compsci, I would love to hear from you. Likewise, if/when I enter, I would like to contribute publicly about my experiences.

That online program from BITS Pilani only started now, first batch of applications was only closed very recently. Cost-wise be prepared 4th year might be most expensive, also it wasn't clear to me whether the online proctored exams are included in the price (they are extra in IIT Madras).

India in recent years showed huge support for online programs, on top government levels, so these are first fruits. IMHO there will be more such programs upcoming  (eg. IIT Madras just opened electronics degree and IIT Guwahati only recently appeared on Coursera).

Other options, apart from the US universities mentioned here often (WGU, TESU, or UMPI which shall have CS program upcoming), Universitat Oberta of Catalunya has sw engineering degree https://www.uoc.edu/en/studies/bachelors...and-prices  in similar price level.

There are even less expensive programs in India, but I didn't research those fully (eg. University of Chandigarh, Amrity University, Don Bosco University,....). There might be barriers (offline exams, higher prices for international students, ...) with some of the other ones.
