You can use Straighterline for study and then CLEP for the credits. Or you can spend $30 to enroll at Fort Hays State University, then transfer the Straighterline credits to FHSU. The end result is graded credits from a regionally-accredited university which can be transferred to wherever.
$99 for a month of SL + $30 FHSU enrollment + $2 FHSU transcript = $131. With a bit of work you could complete two courses in one month at Straighterline. That would give you 6 credits with a letter grade, for $21.83 per credit hour. Talk about ROI, wow!
