Ok, this might be very picky, but it is important. Before you drop over 3 grand on the comprehensive, consider if you will have a student loan or pell grant. You WONT be able to take anything besides online classes if you get financial aid (no PLA, exams, or guided study). (You can do them but you will have to pay for them all out of pocket)
If you pay cash it won't matter.
