I think you can enroll under the Excelsior Course option, which does NOT require that you pay $1095 up front. You should have some time (like maybe a year or two) to take your courses there, and if you don't, then they will switch you to the Multi-Source Option.
Also, did you know that it's only $550 more to actually take 13cr at EC than to do 7cr under the Multi-Source option? Yes, they reduce your tuition under the Course option, so that it's VERY well priced to do it this way.
It's $5300 to do the Multi-source option (including the enrollment fee, Info Lit course, Cornerstone course, Capstone course, technology fees, and Graduation fee).
It's $5850 to do the Excelsior Course option (including the enrollment fee, Info Lit course, Cornerstone course, Capstone course, 2 additional courses, technology fees, and Graduation fee).
So for someone who can't easily get to a UExcel center, it's certainly worth your while to do the 2nd option.
I think it is an interesting proposal, but before committing myself to such a level I prefer to advance a little more with my credits.
For me, having two more RA courses (UEXCE courses) is very interesting and convenient, so it is a valid option, but on the other hand although I can do it; accessing a Pearson center from where I am is extremely difficult and uncomfortable.
The two UEXCEL courses are amazing option to cover those courses difficult to get with providers (maybe Quantitative Analisis is one of those courses).
Then I am going to seriously consider this option.
