FIRST! Great video man.

[@galinagrechkin]

Thank you for the videos, Very informative. Looking forward to your new videos.

[@KenBoyer-ij9iz]

Thank you for making this video. You have an awesome channel and I subscribed! Bro your channel should grow to a million!

[@alexsheppe]

Really appreciate this!!!

[@iamkvn]

Hey Alex! Great video! Very informative! I’m just starting to knock out classes myself. I’m starting with calculus. I’m thinking of maybe going for masters. How much is the intuition at Georgia tech for that? Could you maybe make a video on that? I’m sure more people would love to hear your experience. Also, would love to see more videos from you. I think you’re awesome. ❤

[@alexsheppe]

The tuition at Georgia Tech is pretty affordable, around $750 a class. The cheapest traditional masters out there. If you don’t have your bachelors, focus on that for now. Where are you doing Calculus at?

[@iamkvn]

I’m going to do the BS degree in CS at WGU 😊

[@alexsheppe]

@iamkvn Good luck man!

[@joeg2760]

Looking forward to TESU Computer Science spreadsheet

YO ALEX. Are you working while doing your OMSCS through Georgia Tech? I am curious of what your personal tech job hunting experience was like after getting your Bachelor’s. I just transferred about 30% credits to WGU BS in CS but not starting yet as I can do 13 more classes on Sophia & Study for a total of 68% of the degree done before my first term. According to the parter pages on WGU website it seems impossible to complete more than 75% (the limit) of the BS in CS units through ACE credits. I am just glad I can though.

[@alexsheppe]

I work a part time job that pays really well for the hours worked. Also trying to grind youtube. I could mass-apply for Software Engineer jobs, but trying to make it with my own hustles for once in my life. Not for the faint of heart… if you’re worried about not being able to get a job, don’t worry about that. WGU and TESU Computer Science grads get plenty of Software Engineer jobs, make six figures (Cali specifically), and are wildly successful. They are good schools and good degrees. Keep up the grind man. The degree is very valuable to have. And being able to transfer in 75%, or near 75%, in ACE Credits is something 99.9% of the population isn’t aware of. It’s an AMAZING tool. Thanks for supporting my channel, much appreciated. Please share my channel if you can. Also working on a website I’ll be releasing no later than Friday.

[@Zzz-hr5mo]

@@alexsheppeyou addressed my main concern which is being able to find a job with the degree. And I am open to decently paying careers that would be open to a cs bachelors degree from wgu that are not software engineer if you know of any?

[@bornwild05]

Thanks for videos, just wanted to check if you had chance to make any spreadsheet for TESU computers science course. Thanks again!

[@alexsheppe]

Not yet, but hopefully soon

[@JDMorris81]

You mentioned SWE jobs. Any reason why you opted for CS vs the SWE degree?

[@alexsheppe]

Main Reason: You can transfer in way more credits to the CS degree, 90 vs 71 compared to the SWE degree (speaking strictly ACE credits such as Sophia, Study.com, and StraighterLine) Main reason #2: The SWE degree wasn't out yet Secondary reason #1: Computer Science is more of the gold standard in the industry (although it doesn't matter much) Secondary reason #2: Computer Science core classes like Data Structures & Algorithm 1 & 2 will prepare you a little better for job interviews. Thanks for watching!!

[@JDMorris81]

@@alexsheppe Cool, thanks. My initial goal is a QA Automation position and I want to do Android dev in the long term so I don't see myself in roles that require lots of high level math. In this case, do you think the SWE option is a good fit?

[@alexsheppe]

Either degree will work fine!

[@thompsonappliance3078]

Do you have to do the ace credit before you start? Or can you transfer after you enroll?

[@alexsheppe]

Yes. But you can also withdraw from WGU, do it, and re-enter. WGU will, in all likelihood, take you back, when you showed them you did a ton of ACE Credits.

[@amant2683]

Did Georgia Tech accept the Ace credits in your degree without any problem?

[@alexsheppe]

Yes.

[@BeltFedTommy]

Why did you switch from WGU to TESU? Pros and cons to each?

[@alexsheppe]

I did courses at WGU for C.S. and realized once I did them, I could finish at TESU faster because it’s a Bachelor of Arts in C.S. and they require 12 less C.S. credits. So I transferred to TESU to graduate faster. But do the courses at WGU or somewhere else like I did first cause TESU is $1600 per course. If you don’t care about speed, just try to finish at WGU.

[@BeltFedTommy]

@@alexsheppe all I care about is speed because I’ll be using gi bill that expires 11/2025. So I should go tesu route?

[@alexsheppe]

@BeltFedTommy Just do WGU imo and if you get seriously stuck on a class you can’t finish like Discrete Math II, switch to TESU or WGU Software Engineering. The WGU SE degree wasn’t an option when I was doing mine. Even though you get the G.I. Bill, I’d still transfer as many ACE Credits as possible to ensure you can do your WGU degree in 1-2 terms. You’ll have to pay out of pocket for the ACE Credit courses, could spend up to $1500, but well worth it imo. They are 2-4 day courses.

[@BeltFedTommy]

I was going to do the it management degree

[@alexsheppe]

That one can def be done in one term. But I would still transfer in ACE Credits.
