Essentially, all you can take classes per term, the faster you finish, the cheaper. Depending on your program, you should view the Walden Tempo webpages for each term fee, it ranges and is roughly $2300-$2600 every 3 months, look for their 50% off special before you sign up and enroll...
I posted on another thread about the cost, bcoz I was told today that their listed Tempo price already includes the 50% off...which differs from what others said here in the past. But the enrollment officer said that was awhile ago. She said $2,800 per term (3 months) includes e-books and technology fees.
I was really hoping it was 50% off...so I guess that might make it a "no" for me at this time.

Does that mean you weren't able to do your degree in one term?
Despite transferring in 15 credits, finishing other competency degrees in one term and writing papers at the speed of light. If you can't do it one term, then I highly doubt anyone else on this forum can do it one term.
The amount of work isn't the issue. Its the tempo system as a whole. Lots of dead links, lots of rush together lesson plans, if you have a maniac instructor that you don't click with, you can't just drop the class and pick up later with another instructor. I've already completed my capstone but one crazy instructor in one of the basic core classes is holding me, hostage. I write strictly to the rubric. He keeps adding extra stuff. I'm on my 8th revision of a 4-page opinion paper. WTF ??? That's all I have left to graduate.
This is what I'm afraid of. I am willing to do 2-terms but that's all because I have other financial priorities. 3-terms is more than I can afford. If 2-terms is doable with a fulltime job and family, then it may be worth it.
