What are the best online colleges?

SNHU is not competency-based, you pay by the course. 8-week courses.

I don't think you can compare it to WGU, since it's completely different. No CBE can really be compared to a non-CBE program. Also, "easier" and "harder" are completely relative. Are you good at taking exams? If so, then WGU may be right for you. But you may find a non-CBE program that also does exams, in which case that school might be for you. But I think it's safe to say that if you are NOT good at exams, then WGU probably is not your best option.

I think that it's also difficult to get the max number of credits (90) transferred into SNHU, so the cost may be more than the $9,600 minimum ($320/cr x 30cr). If so, remember that every course you take there will cost you $960. It adds up.
