My 16 year old son is currently taking courses at Straighterline and will transfer to WGU. He should be able to complete his BS degree in 2 terms for a total of $6,000. Using the American Opportunity Tax Credit will bring his total tuition down to around $1800, not counting the money spent at Straighterline. With Straighterline, he is choosing his courses, reading all the texts ahead of time, and then blowing through courses as quickly as possible while his membership is active. He signed up last Monday and finished his third course today. After this month, he'll cancel, pre-read 4 or 5 more texts, and do that all over again.
