If it's been a while since you have been on these forums and since you got a degree, the good news is that there are a TON more options now to "test-out" of a degree. Between Straighterline & Study.com, you can take most of your courses for roughly $100/course online, and never set foot in a testing center. There are also free courses (Insurance Ethics, TEEX, NFA), and very inexpensive options (ALEKS math for $20/mo, Saylor courses are free but the exams are $25, Shmoop is $85/mo for unlimited courses) that are also completely online.
Check out the Beginner's Guide - some of which is outdated already - but it will give you a good place to start. http://www.degreeforum.net/general-educa...llege.html
I was going to mention these options, but dfrecore beat me to it (and does a much more comprehensive job posting than I do), so all I can say is that she is definitely right
