Please help me to get a Bachelor and Master Degree
#15
MapleFu, I replied to your private message on the sister board (DegreeInfo) and am pasting that reply here. Further to that, there are a few questions I have for you. Where did you get your 3 year Comp Sci Diploma (school/city-country)? Are you looking at Regionally Accredited or Nationally Accredited programs? I see you mentioned you've applied to WGU, Regis, TESU and UofPeople.

Do you have kids, are you married, working full time, got grandparents to take care of, have other time consuming responsibilities? Are you looking for cheap/easy/fast? I guess that was a given question, you have the Big 3 (I would suggest TESU and Excelsior over Charter Oak) and the Competency Based Degree providers - WGU (you're lucky, selective areas in Canada are accepted - Alberta, BC, Ontario). You have other options - I've mentioned that in the Beginners Guide.

Bachelors Recommendation: Do not waste time with UofPeople as they are Nationally Accredited, go for a Regionally Accredited program.
1) Apply to TESU/WGU and send in your transcripts to be evaluated by ECE OR WES, if you are applying to Excelsior as well, it must be ECE NOT WES - WES is for their Graduate studies.
2) Decide on the program you want, you may be better served with a BSBA GM/CIS concentration or a BALS CS/Natural Science concentration. Either degree will allow you into an MBA IT at WGU or Patten, or an MIS at Hodges (Info Systems or CyberSecurity)

If you are looking for cheap/easy/fast - competency based degrees are the best option for graduate studies

Thank you for your private message, there are several recommendations for you since you want to get into IT. You can go for a BALS with a CompSci/Natural Science concentration, or a BSBA with a GM/CIS concentration. These are the two most recommended degree plans at the Big 3, you can go for a specific BA/BS if you want. However, most degree programs will require at least one, two or more courses taken at the Big 3.

Your first step is to send in your overseas transcripts to the schools of choice to get an evaluation. Once done, work on the general education courses, lastly, work on the AOS (Area of Study-Concentration courses), your final course you should take would be the capstone - I recommend doing this at the same time as your final few AOS courses. If you plan your courses perfectly and have great time management, you can get a BALS/BSBA in 4 months.

Please take your time to read through the Beginners Guide, the plan templates/spreadsheets at the end of the guide, and review details/info on the Wiki. If you have questions, create one thread and use it as your "progress/tracking/questions" thread and someone will try to assist you by answering your questions - you can always continue to Private Message me.
