List of RA brick and mortar schools that accept 75% of credits from SDC, Sophia, SL - ausernameisneeded - 09-19-2023
Hi, do any of you guys know or have a list of regionally accredited brick and mortar schools that have a 30 credits residency requirements and accept a lot of credits from Sophia, Saylor, Study.com and straighterline?
The one I know of is SNHU.

UMPI is another.
TESU doesn't have a 30 credit residency requirement, but they're also another.
So is Excelsior.
Charter Oak is also a B&M university.
It might help if you said why you're looking for this information.

He doesn't know what he'll major in.
And we're not looking only for academics.
In person extracurricular activities, community, clubs, research ... are a must

For a person who is still in HS, AP and dual-enrollment options are going to be much better than Sophia/SL/SDC. Especially if you want an in-person experience.
AP, duel-enrollment, and CLEP are more widely accepted, in general, than DSSTs, Sophia, StraighterLine, Study.com, etc. More doors will be opened by taking advantage of AP/duel-enrollment while he still can.

What state?
There are free duel enrollment classes at some schools, such as https://www.deanza.edu/admissions/dual/ They don't list any residency requirements there, that I can see. Their application/permission form even asks what state the student is located in. So, I don't think there are any restrictions. But I could be mistaken.
There is also a big list here: https://homeschoolingforcollegecredit.com/hs4cc-cheapest-dual-enrollment-list/ At $25/credit or $100/course, the prices for duel enrollment can rival Study.com and StraighterLine. Amazon offers extremely cheap textbooks, either used or as a rental, so costs there should also be low. Unless an access code is required, but just avoid those classes.
Take advantage of the free/cheap duel enrollment while possible!

Me personally I appreciate the fact that UMPI and TESU are state public universities. Although probably not as many majors and extracurricular’s as SNHU

If one goes in person to UMPI, there are significantly more majors/degree programs than are available in YourPace. Extracurriculars, though, I don't know.
