Some of those should satisfy requirements. The history maps to the humanities and the critical thinking may satisfy a rquirement plus the english and math should count. Like I said before if you're thinking of transferring it'd be better not to wait. WGU is much cheaper and you don't have the UOP "team approach" to classes. There are also probably a lot less papers to write at WGU.No longer work in IT. Play around with stuff sometimes still and fix stuff for friends and relatives. -

You would be suprised what they give you. I attended UOP in the late 90's. I stopped my regular courses and staterted taking MCSE classes they offered. I got my MCSE, got a job, and stopped going after moving to a new city. I am going back now to finish my Bach Degree and almost pulled the trigger at UOP but found WGU. WGU took more of my Gen Ed classes than UOP was going to. Seems like your classes and mine have alot in common and they took most of them I am starting out with 24 credits. They didnt take my old certs since they were over 5 years old.
I liked UOP but for me it was WAYYY to easy. Seems like all I had to do was show up and I got an A. Plus after looking at my classes I knew I didnt really have anything to land a decent job. I know classes have changed in 10 years but it stilled seemed like more theory than pratical knowledge. After spending that kind of money it would have been nice to know how to at least setup a server or switch.
While certs dont always prove someone knows what they are doing. For me studying 2 different sources, testing and actually working with the software/hardware I use fits the bill.
Most people dont use what they learned in College for thier career (how many poetry majors are actually poets). WGU gives me practical knowledge that I know I will use in one way or another.WGU Graduate - Bachelors of Science: Information Technology Security

That's good to know. WGU has all of my transcripts now, except for one. Then I'll need to take the pre-entrance exam. Holding off on finishing enrollment until things settle down with my job and home life. I moved to a new (literally) team in August, and we are still hammering out how it is we are going to do what we do. My wife and I also has a baby due in a couple of months.My WGU B.S.

I was surprised at what WGU tranferred in for me, I got a total of 26 credits, which covered a lot of the general stuff:
BAC1
BBC1
LAE1
LAT1
LUT1
QLC1
QMC1
QLT1
IWC1
IWT1
SSC1
SST1
Hopefully I get going on the cert classes quickly since a lot of the general ed is tranferred in, I want to get a couple of certs before the end of the year so I can get some entry level work while I continue to school for my degree.WGU B.S.IT - Security

NICE! That's pretty much the grand majority. Looks like you have to deal with the natural sciences. In that list, I have to do INT1, QLC1, and QLT1 as well as CLC1, then GE for me is done.
