They're currently seeking Regional accreditation and are scheduled for another visit this fall so if they achieve it, it will also be a major option for people, particularly with the BSCS.
If you maximize transfer credit then remaining fees at UoPeople would be:
$60 application fee
$17 * 30 = $510 transfer credit fee
$120 * 10 = $1200 remaining courses
$1770 total
That would put them at the absolute cheapest option(not counting transfer credits). So while they're severely limited as a NA university, if they achieve RA, then they will likely be the cheapest option for the limited degrees they offer.
Keep in mind that the courses are peer graded and there have been complaints about that on here and other forums. Then there's the name. It's cringey. If they become RA, then I believe they will have to make some serious changes. I can't see an RA accreditation body approving of peer grading.
