Hi All. A previous post mentioned Liberty University Online allowing the transfer of up to 50% of hours needed to graduate. I am specifically targeting this school and hoping to get some tips on where to acquire the hours cheaper elsewhere. Note: I am a veteran and applying for the Civil Air Patrol so Liberty may be impossible to beat from a cost perspective ($206 - 250 per hour). Sorry if this is a stupid question. There are so many bargains for undergrads and I had to ask. I am entertaining the following but open to others:
Applied Psychology: Industrial Organizational Psychology
Human Services: Life Coaching, Military Resilience or Executive Leadership
Thanks.

I'm always happy to complete the free application waiver for those applying to WGU (I get a free gift from WGU for this). Just PM me your first/last name and a valid email so I can complete their form.

OP is looking for graduate credits.
There are some cheap graduate credits through VESi, Advanced or Advancement Courses, PBS Teacherline , Annenberg, and other providers of graduate courses for educators.

Thanks all. It looks like school teachers get huge discounts - wish that were my interest. Limited transfer options to Graduate programs make me realize why so many on this forum go back for a second Bachelor's.

Educational technology probably won't work for the degrees you want, but you don't need to be a teacher to take those courses. Some of the providers I mentioned have some social science-related stuff, but I don't know if Liberty will code them as education and won't count them toward a psych or human services degree.

Or, to spend as little as possible on the bachelor's to allow for a master's. That was my plan- I had a total amount that I could use for any/all education, so by keeping my TESU costs low, I had plenty left for a good grad school. Grad school is expensive, but if you can get it into the 200's range through the program you mentioned, I think that's a home run.
