This is definitely NOT a degree that you can do cheaply or easily via alternate means. I think you're supposed to fill out the aviation-specific requirements with professional certifications? https://www.tesu.edu/academics/oplr/plr?...8#Aviation

For math above college algebra, Study.com has precalculus. NMJC has Physics I & II. They also have GE 214 Introduction to Meteorology.

You'll need 27 RA credits (+ cornerstone for a total of 30) to get this TESU degree. Physics + meteorology is 12 credits. That leaves 15 credits. TEL Learning and Olivet Nazarene are arguably the cheapest sources of RA credit ($66 per credit and $50 per credit). ASU is possibly the easiest way even though each class is a total of $425. https://ea.asu.edu/courses/ ASU has self-paced precalculus on the ALEKS platform; ALEKS is very nice.
In progress:
TESU - BA Computer Science; BSBA CIS; ASNSM Math & CS; ASBA

Completed:
Pierpont - AAS BOG
Sophia (so many), The Institutes (old), Study.com (5 courses)
ASU: Human Origins, Astronomy, Intro Health & Wellness, Western Civilization, Computer Appls & Info Technology, Intro Programming
Strayer: CIS175, CIS111, WRK100, MAT210

In that case, I would highly recommend choosing Physics I & II + Meteorology at NMJC because they have a decent reputation. Then pick 5 courses from ASU. That will be the absolute easiest way to fulfill the non-Aviation degree requirements. Check out this thread for reviews to help you choose which courses: https://www.degreeforum.net/mybb/Thread-...UIdaho-etc

NMJC is New Mexico Junior College. They're popular around here for having good Physics & Chemistry courses that are also inexpensive.

Money is not an issue,

Study.com has Meteorology, as well as Precalc and a Civic Engagement course; but since you need so many RA credits, I would get everything via RA. You are maxed out on alternative credits at this point.

If money is no issue, you can always choose things based on convenience.  Like, you could do Physics I & II at TESU, and choose your terms (as opposed to NMJC, which is based on the traditional semester system, which isn't always convenient for adult learners). $519/cr

Rio Salado College is more expensive than NMJC, but their courses start every Monday. $250/cr.  They have Physics I & II as 16-week courses. They have a 5cr Precalc course that you can do in 8- or 14-weeks. https://www.riosalado.edu/schedule/cours...=&building=

AMU/APU has courses that start the 1st Monday of each month. $285/cr. They have an algebra-based Physics series and calculus-based Physics series, each course is 16 weeks. They also have a 3cr of 4cr Meteorology course that's 8 weeks.  https://www.amu.apus.edu/course-schedule...tDirection=

Logan University has algebra-based Physics courses for 7-weeks or 15-weeks.  $275/cr

Doane University Online has self-paced courses for $329/cr.  They have an algebra-based Physics series and calculus-based Physics series. And Meteorology (which is 4cr so you're right at 30cr RA with that one). And a 4cr Precalc course (which again puts you at 30cr RA) https://www.doane.edu/open-learning#find-a-course

Another thing to consider is getting a BLS w/Management Minor at UMPI, and then at least you have a degree while you're working on your Aviation degree.  

I'd take your requirements for TESU (meteorology, Physics I & II, Precalc - all RA), transfer them to UMPI, and then finish that degree.  Then, you just finish your pilot's licensing, and enroll in TESU for a 2nd bachelor's degree after those are complete.

Thank you for your input
I really appreciate all the info ,.

Which ones are the easiest ,self pace, how do they do exams? Proctor? Webcam? Open books?
Thanks again
