Degree planning BA in CS and BS in homeland security

Decide on what you really need versus what you want, I'd get the 2 Associates, 2 Bachelors, and maybe a cert or two (up to max of 4)

1) AS Comp Sci & Math and AAS Applied Computer Studies & Environmental, Safety, and Security Technologies
2) BA Comp Sci & BSBA or BS with an AOS of your choice, all the classes you take go towards the Associates.
3) Any 4 undergraduate certificates as long as you can transfer in all the credits into the programs affordably.
The degrees you were looking for are not as transfer friendly, thus, you'll take many classes that can't be transferred.
My main priority is the BA in Computer Science, since that’s what I need for my long-term goals. I asked about the possibility of earning more than one degree because I read that TESU allows for additional degrees and certificates, and I want to be strategic with the credits I bring in.
I’d like to plan this out effectively would you recommend that I prioritize the CS degree first, then work on the additional degrees or certs afterward? Or is it better to structure things so that classes overlap and count toward multiple programs from the start?
I definitely want to stay efficient while making sure I meet TESU’s requirements and come out with credentials that will help me stay competitive. Appreciate your insight!

I have tried to get the course by course evaluation, but the agency doing the evaluation requested the transcript be sent in a sealed envelope from the issuing college. That college changed their process and there is no way I can get them to send my transcript. Would a certificate of evaluation of the degree be sufficient or does need to be course by course.

Only TESU can tell you for sure how to deal with this.

Thank you so much . I did contact them and got that resolved.
