Regionally-Accreditted SL Alternatives
#1
Would any of us know of any regionally-accreditied institutions, in which we could complete courses as fast and affordably as we're able with SL?

Just to clarify - is there a particular reason you're looking RA? Also, are there any particular courses/areas of study that you're looking for?

They are some prerequisites I need to fulfill for programs I'm looking to apply for upon graduation, and they require these courses to be regionally-accredited. I'm particularly looking for biology.

Unfortunately, I can't; my school only accepts up to 30 ACE credits, which I've already taken up. The programs are a little strict on CLEPs and APs as well when it comes to prereqs.

The cheapest college credits would be at your local community college, if you can't access them for some reason...
Then the very next one I would choose is Rio Salado College, you can go for all your sciences/labs from them.
Actually, they are one of the most recommended ones on this board... if you can't use ACE/NCCRS anymore.
Next, if you need higher level (upper level) sciences, you can take them at APUS/AMU. They're RA as well.

Rio Salado, which has the option for 8-week terms for many courses, and rolling start dates (1st Monday of each month), so you're not waiting around for the new semester to start.

NMJC

Any of the Independent Study schools - BYU, U of Arkansas Self-Paced, CSU-Pueblo, U of Idaho, LSU - none will be as cheap as SL, and they usually have a minimum amount of time you have to take them (differs according to school and course).

Nothing will be a 3-day thing like SL.

The Kentucky Community College System, KCTCS offers on demand classes that can be finished on your schedule. I do not know anyone that has finished the classes in days, but I do know people who finished in a few weeks. The fees are approximately $164 per credit hour, so on the higher end of CC cost. learnondemand.kctcs.edu They have Intro Bio, Ecology, and Anatomy 1 and 2.
