I hold a two-year degree (not in Criminal Justice) from Central Texas College. An odd aspect of my CTC education is that it was completed after leaving the service.
Anyway, the school accepts CLEP and DANTES exams. Academic residency for a criminal justice associate degree is only 16 semester hours. Plus, all the courses for the CJ degree are available online. For Texas residents, the tuition cost is an absolute steal. For active duty military, TA generally covers most tuition costs.
I've visited the main campus on numerous occasions. It's located across US 190 from Fort Hood. The distance learning counselors are quite helpful both in-person and from afar. In fact, I just viewed the distance learning website, and a support person was available at 10:30 PM CST to answer questions via chat. Exams for many classes are unproctored.
