The good thing about UNA is that they are self-paced (there's a video on there that explains how it works). I would just call them and ask what the format is for the program, and see if you can get a sample of the courses. Nothing to lose.
I'm going to guess that UMPI MAY let you just take 3 courses that you want during the first (and only) term, and then you'd just have those 3 courses on a transcript. But I don't think they're video-based lessons.
Yeah you don't really get much say in the courses you take at UMPI. You follow the degree plan. The classes are definitely not video based. The classes are all text. With an occasionally link to a website article or a video. These are not what you're tested on and not the main focus of the material though. They're like just extra info.
WGU definitely doesn't let you take whatever courses you want. They follow a specific path as well.
