In my situation, I found Excelsior College to be so much cheaper because I only pay the 495 annual student fee. I am taking all of my courses at the local community college in California for free because I qualify for pell grants. If I didn't qualify for pell grants, it would cost 20 dollars per unit. I am also taking CLEP/DSST and getting all of those credits sent to Excelsior. I think the only courses I would take at Excelsior is Business Policy and possibly Operations Management for $865 each. I was initially going to transfer to TUI University, but decided not to use my employer's tuition reimbursement because I might leave the company if I get accepted into law school on a scholarship. So many decisions to make next year.
In regards to transfer credits, Excelsior College granted 2 credits for my A+ and 11 credits for my MCSE and two other Windows NT courses, and bunch of credits for my claims adjuster programs listed on ACE and Army schools.
