CALCampus - sanantone - 11-09-2017
CALCampus is a regionally accredited school, but it's only accredited at the high school and post-secondary levels by CASI. They aren't accredited by the degree-granting division of the North Central Association, which would be the Higher Learning Commission. They say that they have college-level courses meant for transferring, but warn that you should check with your school before taking their courses. TESU told me years ago that they would not accept their credits, and I read on various message boards that people have had their credits rejected by other schools. I did, however, come across someone who said that every pharmacy program he/she contacted informed that CALCampus' credits would fulfill the prerequisites.
I wonder if Excelsior and/or Charter Oak State college would accept their credits. They have some hard-to-find math and science courses as well as standalone labs. They aren't cheap. It might be better to go with UC Berkeley for courses that don't need labs, and UNE has standalone labs for chemistry courses. APUS is a little cheaper, but their selection of science courses is limited.

They are definitely more expensive than I originally thought. If you have no other options, then yeah, choose their offerings, if you can find alternatives at the local two year or four year college, that would be ideal. That’s 800+ for a course worth 3 credits, there are a few hard to find courses though ... hmm...

Westcott has a self-paced math courses for less, and you get the credit on a RA school transcript (United States Univ):
- 4cr Calc III for $544
- 4cr Linear Algebra course for $569
- 4cr Number Theory for $973
- 4cr Abstract Algebra for $973
(I know you posted about Westcott previously Sanantone)

Excellent thread.
