Cheapest Bachelors Degree

[rachel83az]

UMPI is definitely cheaper, with the help of Sophia, and even TESU might beat that price. But, for someone who doesn't want to deal with competency-based or chasing down credits from multiple sources, that's not a bad price. Doubly true if those are graded credits and you want to be able to get into a grad program that expects graded credits.

If anyone here is interested in this degree, I found the school's information page: https://www.suu.edu/bgs/ You can PLA up to 15 credits. https://www.suu.edu/blog/2020/08/prior-l...sment.html

If you have prior credit from another school, you can see transfer equivalencies here: https://www.suu.edu/admissions/transfer-guide.html

30 credits may be brought to SUU via CLEP and/or their own challenge exams: https://www.suu.edu/registrar/additional-credit.html Their challenge exams can only be taken in person, as far as I can tell, there is no remote proctoring. They don't appear to accept ACE credits at all beyond CLEP.

If you did CLEP for 30 credits, you could bring the cost of this degree down to $6750 (assuming free CLEP through ModernStates). Bring in credits earned via TEL and/or ONU to potentially drop the cost down even further.
