    I'm looking for recommendations on which RA DL BSCS program requires the least general studies credits. I've passed all but the humanities CLEP exams. I've developed low level software for over a decade and feel confident that I could complete coursework related to the degree fairly quickly. I don't mind taking any math or major requirement courses -- I'd just like to avoid as many music/history/english/sociology/chemistry, etc.

    Any advice is appreciated.

    CSAB/ABET accreditation in CS.

    I'm definitely not interested in CIS or IT or IS.

    thanks

    Curriculum criteria for ABET accreditation specify at least 40 hours (1/3 of the program) in computer science, at least 30 hours in math/science and at least 30 hours in humanities, social sciences, etc. , so the "floor" for general education requirements is one quarter of the coursework. In fact, in my experience, this is also the "ceiling" in practice.

    Good luck.
