TESC's English BA looks significantly more like a Literature degree, oddly enough.

Here are my approx. costs for the degree:
~$1k: 60 credit hours of CLEPs
$3800 (-$2k scholarship)= $1800: 30 cr hrs at community college
$8k (-$2k)= $6k: 30 cr hrs and misc fees at TESC
= ~$13000 total

And as a side note, BYU Independent Study has some fantastic looking literature & english classes: University Online Course Catalog - BYU Independent Study

I wish you all the best on your degree!!
