Does Excelsior have a one course tuition?
#1
Is there any way I can take one course from Excelsior without having to enroll? How much would it be?

Yes. My wife did that, she is enrolled with TESC but took two classes with Excelsior and transferred them in. Can't remember what she did but I'm sure you can call them and they'll walk you through it. She was just considered non-matriculated or non-degree seeking student. They charge $250 a credit hour, plus books.

People with ties to the military are charged $250 per credit hour for Excelsior courses. However, everybody else pays $335 per semester hour, plus the cost of books.

If this is the case, I would look at other "cheaper" colleges to get transfer credit.

Excelsior courses cost a whopping $335 per credit in tuition, which equates to $1005 per 3 semester hour class. There are cheaper options if you want to take a single class without enrolling. For example, Independent Study in Idaho offers distance based courses for about $100 per credit. Louisiana State University offers independent study courses that cost $364 for a 3 semester hour class.

Also, you can enroll at Fort Hays State University as a non-degree seeking student and pay $170 per credit to take a class.
