My daughter attended Embry Riddle and we talked to them about all forms of alternative credit, and they were firm that the only credits they accept are:
1. Credits with a grade from a regionally accredited college/university
2. AP credits (most of them, but not all)
3. CLEP credits (a subset of them, but not all - check their catalog or google it)
4. ACE credits only from military training/education
We specifically asked about Straighterline, and they said no.
However, Embry Riddle is very expensive, so she took courses through the ASU/EdX Global Freshman Academy (now it is Earned Admission at ASU). The courses were $649 for three credits (and now they are $425 for three credits). They transferred in no problem to Embry Riddle. Besides these options, you can also try community college courses, as well as a new program called Outlier.org, which has Calculus and Psychology for $400 and is transcripted at the University of Pittsburg.
Hopes this helps.
