I love teachers, especially the ones who put care/effort into teaching the younger generation what they currently know and should know. Anyways, you're going to have to decide on a couple options, it's either going to be one/two of the three - cheap/easy/fast. Rarely will it be all three, but I like to add a 4th - value. I find from your posts, you're leaning towards doing the free courses and the cheap ones from onlinedegree.com towards a WGU degree.
That is where is where you're going for too much, onlinedegree.com are NCCRS credits, apparently, WGU will not accept those. It would be a waste of your energy/money/time to work on these courses. I would even venture to say, for the FREE/cheapo courses, if the courses do not transfer over, skip it! You just need the required credits to get your degree. For WGU, I recommend doing the StraighterLine/Study.com combo because both are ACE recommended for credit.
I would fork out the cash towards StraighterLine as many if not all of the people who I recommended to apply for a WGU scholarship, got the scholarship after taking a minimum of 4 courses. Essentially, it's $2000 split into 4 terms. I would only use 1 term of $500. That's roughly 10 courses at StraighterLine paid for... Find your degree at WGU (Teaching) and get the requirements, post them here and we'll try to provide all the transferable options. BTW, do you have tuition reimbursement? - BJ Out.
Wouldn't WGU Academy be the cost friendly SL plan?
