They aren't offered ala carte on the website that I can see.
How much do they charge per course?, also $237?

Actually if that is the case, wouldn't one possible method of getting transfer credits (If presumably starting from 0.) be enrolling in the complete business degree BA program ( Online Bachelor's Degree in Business Management | Penn Foster College )for $1,156, which is approximately the price of 5 of their courses a la carte, then quitting after semester 7 and sending the transcript to one of the big 3 and getting 90 TR credits, many of which are upper level: 8 total - then finishing the other odd requirements and graduating with an RA degree?
I suppose testing out may still be quicker though.

That's the price per semester, not for the whole degree.

Aha, of course. I didn't read the page closely enough. No wonder it seemed to cheap to be true.

Anyway the original question in the title still remains:
How are people enrolling for Penn Foster Upper Level courses a la carte?

Also, Penn Foster is nationally accredited and their credits won't transfer to most institutions. The only credits that transfer are the ACE assessed credits.
