Same thing here, I got 15 credits out of the ASU offer and am happy I did. I'm still going to continue doing a few specific classes that I particularly need at ASU. Even at $425, it's still one of the best and cheapest ways out there to acquire graded RA credits. The pay-after-you-pass system is a fantastic feature that can't be found anywhere else.
Well why you not continue the whole degree at ASU and you pay after you acquire 120 credits and let us know how much you pay for it....
Not sure if you're being facetious, but the answer to this is, there are a limited number of courses at this price - you can't get an entire degree this way (or even the entire GE I don't think).

ASU EA doesn't have nearly enough credits for that and no ULs or else I'm sure that some people here at least would love to do that.

Not sure if you're trolling, but as rachel and dfrecore stated, that would be a fantastic option if it existed. The big three are okay, but ASU is a great and well-known institution. While $425 per class is a bit more than people on this board are used to paying for alt credit, it's an absolute steal for graded classes at a household name school. ASU EA only offers about twenty lower level gen Ed type courses at the moment, which I am still grateful for. If I was offered the opportunity to complete my entire undergrad via that platform + bringing in some CLEP credits, I would absolutely do so.

Why would you take TEL Learning over a community college? Genuinely curious.

You can't complete a degree from ASU with the program they're talking about. It has limited courses available. A whole degree at ASU is far more expensive.

TEL is self-paced and cheaper than most CC courses.

If you fail a TEL course do you have to pay again $200 to do a try?

My kid is taking a TEL course right now because: 1) it's RA and comes in on an RA transcript for a 4yr school (so comparable to ASU in that regards); and 2) it's self-paced and so she can take it when she wants, as quickly as she wants. Her regular CC is a smidge cheaper, but they don't offer the course she needs during the winter intercession, and even if they did, it's for 4 weeks and she's gone 1 of those weeks - with TEL, she started last week, and hopes to be done before the last week of January - but even if she's not, if she needs another week or two, it will be during the first part of the semester when her workload at school is at it's lightest. Why WOULDN'T you use TEL?
BTW - with the 15% discount TEL is offering (code: TELhome15), it puts the price at $57/cr, which is an awesome price. Most in-state CC's aren't even that cheap. Add to it the fact that it's self-paced, and it cannot get much better.

Broken record here - Luna Community College. $40 per credit. Don't know what the fees would add to that.

I know that but not all courses are online and you have to take only 6 credit for semester to get that cheap credit you need to read more in details and you will see that.
