Purdue University Global's Open University Program

This is the breakdown price as I see it, not really all that cheap, it's similar to Big 3 pricing or a competency based degree program.
The pricing will range from the low $4K up to $8K at the Big 3/Competency ones. Here goes...

PLA course $1500
Assessments: $99 each, let's say you need 10 courses, that's $990
Monthly fee: $199/month, let's also say you need 10, it's $1990.
Total (without any other fees included):  $4480

For this price, it's very comparable to the others mentioned, if you can finish a degree at Brandman/WGU/UMPI, etc, that would be similar in price.

As always bjcheung, much appreciated. Hopefully with this topic being in the sticky someone else my see it who could use it. The only costs I would add on would be IT certs + MOOCs you may need. AWS and CySA+ would cost roughly $500 for the certs and that assuming you aren't spending $50 a month for MOOCs.

That puts this particular method at $5000-$6000. Other options are: https://www.purdueglobal.edu/transfer-st...ion-exams/.
