Data Structures Course Options List - jonesy20 - 01-20-2019
I'm working on my BA In Computer Science from TESU and the only course I have left to plan is Data Structures. I hear that Study.com might have an ACE certified one but in case they don't I want to see what other options are available.
My local community college has it as a 5 credit course but I'd prefer to find a cheap one that's 3 credits.
My preference is Python or C# but there are not a lot of options using those languages.
Here's what I've found. Please reply with any that you find.
Data Structures in Python
City College of San Francisco - Data Structures in C++ 4

I would imagine the 5 credit course at your CC is quarter credits, so only 3.33 semester hours. But you would obviously know better than me

But you would obviously know better than meI just checked to see because 5 seems like a lot and they have other courses that I would expect to be 3 that are and the class is 4 hours of lecture per week and a 1 hour lab on top of it.

Yeah, that's how long a five quarter hour class (3.33 semester hours) takes per week for a school on the quarter system

Foothill and/or DeAnza. They are also on the quarter system.

Study.com's Data Structures course is not ACE approved at this time. If it's your last course, I'm going to say that you should probably just bite the bullet and take it at your local CC. If it's a quarter-system school, the quarter may have already started. For a semester-system school, it should be starting soon.
If you're a CA resident, it's only $46/cr for semester schools, and $31/cr for quarter schools - you can't get much cheaper than that.

There's also this course at UNI which uses Python (https://continuinged.uni.edu/distance/gis/courses/cs-1520).

In my experience, many of these courses fill up fast and have long waiting lists, especially cheap ones.
