Also in regards to the fee for Maryville, yes it's expensive, but their scheduling allows for pretty much every class to be taken in the evenings which is why the price is so high, and a computer science degee isn't something i would recommend taking online due to all the languages you have to learn.

Brian,

Your plan wouldn't work because the CLEP credits would be listed as such on the reporting school's transcript.

Why not do your computer courses in a classroom setting (at Marysville if you so desire...though I can't help thinking that they are excessively expensive), and then test out of the remaining credits and earn your computer degree at Excelsior (which will allow you to apply unlimited credits from exams and transfers). That way you will have the best of both worlds.
