It will only cost more if you don't finish in the 12 months. If I had really wanted to I could have taken 7 history exams and 1 class between June 15 and Oct 31 then I would not have had to pay another enrollment fee.
I would rather earn 24 credits in my area of study and earn a second degree then a dual major. I wanted the history degree because I also wanted to be able to teach Social Studies.
I guess it all depends on what you want to do with your degree. Also undergraduate credits are cheaper and I live in NJ so TESC and CLEP/DSST I could do the 2nd degree in 12-18 months for about 2K
