I came across the University of Colorado, Colorado Springs. There are 24 Sociology credits available to take online.
Graduate Certificate Program in Diversity, Social Justice and Inclusion - LAS Extended Studies | University of Colorado Colorado Springs
The first 12 credits are through the UC for a sociology certificate and the next set are laundered for another graduate certificate. This might be a cheaper alternative for those looking for a second under grad degree.
If you complete the 24 the remaining classes will complete your MA in Sociology. They are on campus for the remaining 12 but I'd call them to see if there is a workaround for that. Masters degree around 7-8k isn't bad.
MA in progress
Certificate in the Study of Capitalism - University of Arkansas
BS, Business Administration - Ashworth College
Certificates in Accounting & Finance
BA, Regents Bachelor of Arts - West Virginia University
AAS & AGS

Looks interesting, but I am a little concerned by this "is offered by a nationally accredited university;" It looks like the school is an RA program. Is this something with this program that make is not RA and can only be NA?

I don't think they understand the connotations behind calling themselves "nationally accredited." I've seen employers ask for a degree from a nationally accredited college or university. I think what they really mean is that they want accreditation that is nationally recognized and that includes regional accreditation. In a way, programmatic accreditation is national accreditation.

I agree it is poorly worded. They are an RA school, and I think what they are referring to is certificate number two (credits 13-24) are through a partner website which they still will credit launder the complete classes for $486.
Course Offerings - LAS Extended Studies | University of Colorado Colorado Springs I also agree that they are trying to say that the credits should be nationally accepted as they are an RA school.

I'm with Sanantone, that's a mistake you'll see from time to time.
