She has to take 15cr at a CC or 4-yr school, which she has done. I think at this point, she can take the rest as ACE credits and she's good.
So she could do all of the free stuff, and then ALEKS if it's renewed, she, Shmoop, Saylor, etc. to save as much as possible.
I got mine at WVNCC, there were absolutely no fees. So the only cost was sending the transcripts.
This is the winner imo.
I posted this before I remembered about the BOG degrees. AAS / AS / AA for her won't matter in her career one bit. Thank you! I'm going to start her degree plan immediately.

I would probably plan out a BA/BS at one of the Big 3 (or one of the competency-based programs) so that she's killing 2 birds with one stone. Doesn't do much good to spend money getting credits only to have them not be able to be used going forward.
For instance, English Comp II or Speech can be used (and may be required) almost everywhere. A math and a science as well. Then, do 6 college-level anything courses - the free ones are a good start (11cr), and then ALEKS if it gets renewed, and maybe Saylor or Shmoop courses if cost is an issue. Also have her apply for the Study.com scholarship.
I am EXCEPTIONALLY thankful for those files, thank you!!!!! I just might have to fly out to California and give you a hug!
