Hello,

Which regionally accredited competency-based online program will give me the most amount of upper-level English courses?

and is there any ACE credit course provider that will give me at least six to seven upper-level English courses?

Thanks,

UMPI has an English competency based degree program. You can also try the Harvard Extension Poetry In America series, they were $250 each, now they're $1000, but you'll get Harvard under your belt! And these can be graduate credits...

In Progress: UMPI BAS & MAOL | TESU BA Biology & Computer Science
Graduate Certificate: ASU Global Management & Entrepreneurship

Completed: TESU ASNSM Biology, BSBA (ACBSP Accredited 2017)

There's really no way to know unless you apply. Keep in mind that you still need to complete a specific number of credits including upper level credits in your degree program and major at every college. 

UMPI has a BA in English and they require a specific number of UL credits to be taken at UMPI including a certain number in the major. I'm not in that degree program so I don't know what the specs are for that degree. I'm in the BLS degree. UMPI is a competency based program. You can apply and find out what they say. The application is free.

I found UMPI has only two upper-level English courses. I may ask them if they have more. Cool

The UMPI English degree also includes communications which has additional uppers. If you attend UMPI, they offer all of the courses needed to complete their degree. No need to take courses elsewhere.

I may look up some other self-paced RA courses or extension school courses like that.
$1k per a course is too expensive for me.
And you're right!

I found many upper-level English courses on BYU self-paced!

All of them are upper levels and $600 each:

I'd check with the school you're planning on going to, I'm guessing some of these won't be considered UL (Am Lit), or might not be considered ENG/LIT (WRTG313).

A syllabus is good to get - something showing why the course should be brought in as you want (UL) is a good start.

First, it depends on which school you want to go to as to how they will bring in credit.

Study.com has 2 UL English courses (ENG 301: Non-Western Literature & ENGL 305: Advanced Technical Writing).
Coopersmith has 1 UL English course (LIT-401: Medieval Hispano-Jewish Poetry)
