Need guidance, combo traditional and tests possible?

[Catalytic]

Are all of these courses from a 2-yr college or 4-yr?

All from 2 year/community colleges.

If you wish to take traditional classes from multiple sources, I would give COSC a call. They've been known to set up consortium agreements with other schools to allow the use of Financial Aid.

I'm good with all traditional/online courses being with the same school, but possibly I would want to do some alternative credits (ALEKS/CLEP/etc) at the same time as traditional classes. I just spoke with COSC, they're a bit higher per credit hour than UMUC, but it sounds like I could get my Associate's from them for about $1500 if I use ALEKS for my Algebra. I'm honestly not sure how much I could test out of, I'm not the greatest student in the world and my memory is atrocious. ALEKS looks really good (did the trial last night), and I have two high school seniors, so I think I'm going to do a year family membership and have the kids do some credits through there, as well.
