			<description><![CDATA[The Arizona State University W.P. Carey School of Business, Next Generation Personal Finance and the Stiles-Nicholson Foundation offer three free graduate finance courses and two graduate certificates to high school teachers.<br />
<br />
You have to be a high school teacher.  It seems to be okay that you teach any HS subject.  You have to take free online prerequisite courses prior to each of the three graduate courses.<br />
<br />
This seems like a great program.<br />

<br />
I'm not sure if anyone has brought up Manipal online (India) but they offer bachelors and masters degree albeit on a semester system. The bachelors costs under 1K USD for the duration of the programs and Masters are also really cheap. <br />

			<guid isPermaLink="false">https://legacy.degreeforum.net/mybb/Thread-TESU-Duel-Degree-BACS-BS-CIS-Advice</guid>
			<description><![CDATA[I'm considering pursuing a dual degree at TESU: a Bachelor of Arts in Computer Science and a Bachelor of Science in Computer Information Systems. I have a bachelor's degree from a traditional university, but I want to explore these fields because my goal is to attend Georgia Tech for its master's program in cybersecurity, policy track. <br />
<br />
To do this, I've completed many Sophia, Study.com, and Coursera certificates to earn the required credits over the past year and a half. <br />
<br />
From my understanding, if you double major, you can't overlap more than three courses. To earn a dual degree, I would need 12 upper-level credits. Three will be from Study.com (Computer Science 302: Systems Analysis &amp; Design, Business 303: Management Information Systems, and Computer Science 303: Database Management). This leaves me with one more upper-level class to complete. While I could just take software engineering at TESU, I started to look for other options. <br />
<br />
I reviewed my old transcripts and realized I took a Data Mining and Data Warehousing class as an elective for my Hellenic American University MBA. I am wondering if this would satisfy an upper-level credit. The course is a part of their Master of Science in Informatics. Does anyone know if you can use a master's-level credit for upper-level undergraduate credit at TESU?]]></description>
