Going back to school...
#3
Quote:Or is this a possible to finish these within the 6 month period.
Very possible. Although I took 2 terms, I really only spent 2-3 months actually working on my WGU classes(was doing another program at the same time). With that said, it wouldn't hurt to try and fit in another transfer class or 2.

Ethics in Technology- 3 credits: many have reported that the similarly named DSST test will cover this, though regardless, this is a really easy course at WGU IMO and I was able to finish in under a day I believe.
Finite Math- 4 credits: no known transfers but that doesn't matter since this is another really easy one.
Business of IT- Applications- 4 credits: this is the ITIL cert. WGU accepted my ASU course CIS 105 for this one so you may want to take that approach. I hear the ITIL cert isn't valued very highly so it wouldn't hurt to transfer this in and skip it if feasible. With that said, I've heard that many are able to just cram for this one in under a week even though the material is very dry.
Web Development Application- 6 credits: assuming they haven't implemented changes to this one yet, most people find this one to be hard. I found it incredibly easy if you pass web dev foundations first, but most people transfer that in via Sophia. There's tons of advice on Reddit to help pass this one if you need.
Linux Foundations- 3 credits: this one is LPI Linux Essentials and isn't too expensive if you wanted to transfer it in(there's also a discount if you complete the free course for it through Cisco netacademy).
User Interface Design- 4 credits: this is just a project which isn't too challenging.
Emerging Technology- 2 credits: just a paper. Not too hard 
Networks- 4 credits: Comptia Net+ certification. Most people find this harder than security+.
Network and Security Applications- 4 credits: Comptia Security+ certification.
IT Applications- 4 credits: CompTIA A+ core 2 exam. Make sure you take the same version as your core 1.
Capstone- 4 Credits


As mentioned, taking a cert or 2 would get you some more transfer credits. Be sure to apply to WGU asap(free) and submit your current transcripts to get them evaluated to confirm what you have remaining.
