HELP Bachelors Degree for Teaching Abroad

[alab21]

Hey everybody, for a few months now I have been looking into pursuing a bachelors degree, so I have been trying to find out some info on how I could possibly get one as fast and as affordable as possible. I heard about getting a degree quickly through credit from examination. I have heard about the big 3 schools that will accept exams as credit. I am completely lost with trying to figure out what exams I would have to take etc. A little background first. I have never went to college. I make decent money so affording exams etc shouldn't be that hard. I have no idea what degree I would like to pursue, but honestly in my case it does not matter. The end goal is that I would love to teach English abroad and in most countries a accredited bachelors degree is required (In any subject). So my question is does anybody know of some degrees that are easier to obtain than others? and if so could anybody point me in the direction of what exams are needed etc? I know I'm asking for a lot however any incite I would greatly appreciate! Thank you!

Have you read the introductory wiki? If not, I’d start there. Take a look at the various degrees and see what you’re interested in. COSC tends to be cheapest. There are some degree plans posted on the wiki. I’m sure others will respond too.

They also put together a list of free credit on the wiki. You could start with the free Sophia credits. You’ll need to reserve Study.com for UL credit most likely, so grab the free or cheap stuff that’ll fill electives or LL credit now. Some people have preferred methods of getting credit, so that’ll help you decided. CLEP is free via Modern states right now, that’s independent study then take 1 test, no assignments (College composition req’s a written portion too). If you don’t like the one-and-done format, Study has a ton of little quizzes, a few assignments and a proctored final. Each provider offers a little bit different experience.
