WGU - BSCC (BS in Cloud Computing)

[CarpeDiem8]

Hey guys!

I'm trying to help plan my husband's path for this degree. He is currently a Senior Engineer who is pivoting his career towards DevOps. He recently obtained the AWS Certified Developer cert, is currently doing Google's IT Automation in Python cert, and then will get the AWS Certified DevOps cert. After that, he wants to start chipping away towards a bachelor's degree. We were originally going to do TESU's BACS, but after we found this, he is convinced this is a better fit.

However, I'm not too familiar with WGU. 

I am following Reddit (under the former degree name, BSCSA), I see the transfer guide for Study.com, but I still have some questions.

1) For WGU, it's recommended to apply and send transcripts to get an evaluation and see where we stand, but wait to enroll until you get as much completed with your alternative credits done, correct?

2) Does anyone know if there are other alt providers that WGU accepts aside from Study.com?

3) What other things are recommended for planning a degree when going with WGU?

Thanks!!!!
