Bacherlors in Computer Science

It basically partners the air force with different colleges and universities to help us go from an associates to a bachelors degree. My question is does it matter where i get my bachelors from? Most of the universities that are in the cooperative i have never really heard of.


If you are using your CCAF to go straight into a bachelor's program, the AU-ABC program is good if you pay attention to accreditation and do your own research. However, I just learned this recently, if you are solely relying on TA you might want to look for an associate's program that transfers better to a bachelor's you are actually interested in. The Air Force will pay TA for any degree up to a Master's as long as you don't have a higher degree. So essentially you can get TA for an Associate's even if you have a CCAF degree since that doesn't count. To answer your question though, as long as you have experience in the field you are interested in, or can show you are knowledgeable in the field, a degree is really icing on the cake for military members.
