Computer Degree Suggestions at any of the Big 3?

BACS plan

your plan shows a cost of $9,297 
3 terms (18 months) at WGU would be $10,560 ----- $1,263 more
2 terms (12 months) at WGU would be $7,040 ----- $2,257 less

this is not including WGU application fee because they seem to have a sale at least once a month where they waive the application fee 

also does not include graduation fee because I don't know if they have one 

also doesn't include the cost of doing outside credits -- so if you do a bunch of study.com courses and then transfer them in to WGU I'm not sure if that saves any money since WGU still charges $3520 per 6 month term regardless of the number of courses you do there
(I think if you're positive you could complete your degree at WGU in 2 terms then you could transfer in 22 courses at study.com at a cost of $2,200 and then add 2 terms of tuition at WGU at a cost of $7,040 for a total of $9,240 and still come out slightly cheaper than TESU)

not saying anyone choice is better than the other -- just wondering if my math and assumptions are correct
