Where else? Reading through the guidelines, outside of the lower levels, there are a lot of IT specific classes that I don’t see offered by CLEP

You keep limiting things.  Instead of saying "I want to take everything through SL" or "I don't see any through CLEP", you might ask "where can I get IT courses?"  And then people will throw out lots of ideas.

I apologize, I did not mean to do that. I just assumed SL was my only option. So Study.com

go here
https://www.wgu.edu/admissions/transfers...tions.html

find the degree you're interested in
then click on the + next to the company name to see which certs from that company transfer to WGU

as for general stuff, jsut do CLEP, DSST, straighterline and study.com

do the WGU academy and get the CompTIA A+
https://academy.wgu.edu/program/it

or just enroll in WGU and get started -- its 3520 for 6 months

Again, limiting.  There are a ton of options for credits, rather than naming a particular provider, you should research a bunch.  People will help, but will only give as much info as you ask for.  So when you limit the providers, you limit your information.

I would also do a lot more research here on this forum before starting your journey.  You are just at the beginning, and need a lot more information.  Start coming her every day and spend an hour or two for the next 2-4 weeks.  You will learn a lot.
