I took Public Speaking from BYU Distance Learning and I think it was a great course. The lessons were easy to understand, and the instructor was very encouraging. It only took me about a month to complete the course.

[SIZE="2"][COLOR="Navy"]One other consideration may be PFC (Penn Foster College) as they offer more than 125 ACE reviewed courses that may be accepted for credit (EC accepts them).
They only charge $55. per CH so a 3 hour course runs just $165.00 and INCLUDES BOOKS too! Penn Foster College - Associate College Degrees .[/COLOR][/SIZE]

Do they have online/independent study courses for math & statistics, I have the feeling that it has been so long since I have done math that I may need real courses for these. As you can see I am a bit match phobic.

Brian, thank you so much, I think I will call and register for the college algebra, I was just feeling overwhelmed on where to start studying for this one. Since I see you are a excelsior graduate I can safely assume they transfer okay.
