Fastest and cheapest way to get BAS or Bs CS for International Student

And that's the reason for my previous posts, you're getting a balanced mix/match trifecta of certs, degree, experience to strengthen your application or portfolio for either furthering your education or furthering your footprint in your current career.  I don't think the TESU BACS will do too much for you since you're already in the field, Software Development or Engineering.  You'll do fine with the Pierpont BOG AAS, UMPI BAS, and you can ladder to the MAOL, what that achieves is, just the papers to acknowledge your education, your experience is where it'll showcase your skillset.  When the time comes, go for the UMPI MAOL to move up the ranks!

Can't agree with this. For software developers, certs are almost not a thing, and a lot of tech companies won't hire you without either a CS or a relevant hard science or math. Not saying you can't find work, you can. After all, I worked for 30 years before I got my degree, but there were employers I couldn't get hired at without the right degree.
