Been out of school for 3 years, working at Walmart and they have a benefit that will basically pay for all my schooling for participating programs.<p>I've narrowed it to these two programs by virtue of the deadline to apply not being in the next 4 days, but the start date not being 4 months from now.<p>Southern New Hampshire Uni:

https://www.wilmu.edu/technology/computer-science-curriculum.aspx<p>I'd have to take a readiness assessment before applying to Wilmington, so if I fail that it makes the choice easier, but otherwise I don't really know. I would also have to choose a concentration for either program, but that will probably be easier.<p>Looking at the syllabus, it looks like Wilmington Gen Ed requires less (relatively) higher math, which would be attractive to me because the last math class I took was Alg 1 3-4 years ago and I don't want to get bodied.<p>What are your immediate thoughts?
(I guess I should probably state my education goals - get an employable degree and learn cool stuff along the way, the gen ed might actually be more valuable to me than the CS stuff spending 1 hour lessons explaining what a function is)
A word of caution. A lot of college classes start deceptively easy, e.g. "one hour on what a function is" but ramp up quickly to where success on week four's quiz is truly a matter of having done the homework and devoting time to study.<p>It's better to assume you don't know much about the subject from day one. If the first week studying only takes a half hour, spend the other five and half hours getting ahead on future weeks.<p>Good luck.
