I am currently enrolled in Excelsior College (via POAG) but considering finishing with TESU depending upon ease and speed, not cost (though cost is a consideration if Excelsior's price become unreasonable. Unreasonable to me is $750 or more)

I can't tell if you are taking this into account already, and I haven't been paying attention to the latest policies, so this may have completely changed. Several years ago, the partnership discounts required a certain number of credits to be taken through EC, like 6 for AS and 12 for BS. Be sure to double-check that with your advisor. Here is an old thread (some details are out-of-date), but it will give you an idea of other questions to ask and consider:
