Ask HN: Fully online CS degrees?

If you're ok with BS in Information Technology instead of CS, WGU has a good 100% online program. If not, their masters degree programs may be a good follow up (one of them is in security and may include one or more relevant certifications).

+1 for WGU. I am currently using whats left of my GI Bill for the Data Management/Data Analytics BS. I have been very happy with them, although the past 3 colleges I attended were brick and mortar so this is my first venture into online-only territory, I especially like the lack of term breaks, and that I can do as many credits as I can manage at no extra term cost.

They also have Software Dev.

And I believe CS coming "soon."

I'm finishing up at WGU in Software Dev but sure wouldn't mind switching to CS proper - I keep hearing this and "soon," but can't pinpoint the source of the rumors whatsoever - do you know where you heard / got the impression that CS was coming to WGU?
