If it is not a regular university or community college (and Sophia/SL/SDC are not) then they are ACE credits. 24 credits can come from other colleges/universities. Depending on the CC, these may be as cheap as $50-100 per credit.
Sophia doesn't require arranging for proctoring, so it's easy to complete the courses quickly. But they are only LL classes, mostly GE.
I have no experience with SL but they do have classes that you can't find at Sophia.
SDC has some classes that could count as UL credits, which can be difficult to get from inexpensive community colleges.
So, really, it's less of an either/or than it is figuring out your exact needs/wants and going from there.
