Information Technology Degree Plan
This is a Information Technology Degree plan for Purdue University Global (PUG).
The alternative credit courses were handpicked using experience from previous students as to what courses will be the easiest and quickest courses to take. In places with multiple courses listed, the first course is assumed to be the fastest/easiest course to take.
Tips on Order in Which to Complete Courses
Start with CLEP, then Sophia. Sophia only allows 2 courses open at one time so don't have 2 courses that have touchstones (written assignments) open at the same time. Once done with Sophia, start doing Study.com courses. Last knock out the PHP Certificate. (should be anywhere from 1-4 weeks)
How Long Will It Take To Complete This Degree Once I Finish All the Alterative Credits?
How long to complete depends on a variety of factors such as experience, time commitment, the efficiency of studying, etc. Considering you spend at least 20 hours a week on your studies, it should take 2-3 terms to complete this degree.
