According to the website, financial aid cannot be used for TECEPs, e-pack courses, and PLAs, but it can be used for online and guided study courses. The Guided Study courses are not a study as you go type, they are 12 week courses similar to online courses but without the online discussion assignments. Both guided study and online courses have assignments that are due at regular intervals during the 12 weeks. The only courses that are study-as-you-go are the e-pack courses. The e-pack courses have no assignments, just quizzes to prepare for a comprehensive exam. It is like preparing for and taking a TECEP or CLEP but costs as much as a regular course (online or guided study).
Hope this helps.
Shoot, so when would the next semester start? It looks like I'm going to need about 58 credits to fulfill my Bachelors. Do you think I would be able to take 29 credits for two semesters and graduate? Basically, if I go the financial aid route, is it still possible for me to graduate December 2011?
