1) Why would you take CLEP College Algebra when there are cheaper ways to get this (ALEKS, Saylor)? And, you can find an easier math course if you wanted (DSST has Math for Liberal Arts for instance).
2) Why would you choose Ed4Credit when it's twice as much as SL or Study.com? Especially for LL courses.
3) Why take LL TECEP exams?
4) You say that you want to take traditional courses, but at TESU they are $1500/course. That would put you WELL over the $8000 limit you have set for yourself.
5) What language courses do you want to take? You can learn many languages online for free, and get college credit for some of them. But you would have to be pretty fluent to get those credits (ACTFL for instance, or CLEP). It could take years before you could get fluent enough to get the credits, in the meanwhile you could be finished with your degree before then.
Look at my degree plan and see if it helps a little.
1.Mostly math test curiosity and I wasn't sure if I'd be able to do ALEKS within the time frame or not. I also haven't heard much about DSST so wasn't sure I could still even do it or not.
2. I haven't compared Straighterline and Ed4credit. It just seemed more user friendly to me. I think the computer requirements were something my husband said we could do ; can't remember.
3. Test curiosity
4. I found the course numbers on the TESU website however I don't intend on taking them "there" I'm hoping to find a local college to take them at instead. I still wanted to place the numbers so that I would remember them.
5. I've been hunting for some free language lessons online and slowly pre-studying them but haven't 100% picked out which language to dedicate my time to just yet.
Thanks.
