Hello, I applied at TESU and sent in transcripts as well as sophia.org classes. With the $3000 non residency fee, is TESU the best place to get my degree cost wise with the methods of transfer credits in this forum
Thanks Randy

It depends on what degree you're going for, if you're military, etc. There are a lot of factors that could make it cheaper.

TESU is not necessarily the cheapest but it has the widest selection of degrees and the most flexibility in many instances.

In fact, TESU is generally the most expensive of the big 3, even when transferring in the maximum credits. But, depending on your circumstances what the degree you're aiming for, it still may be the best overall choice. The price difference between the three is less than $3,000.
If money is your main concern, then WGU is usually the least expensive option for a RA US degree. Though it assumes you transfer in 90 credits from ACE providers and are able to finish the last 30 credits within a single 6-months term. WGU is also one of the better options if your end goal is to pursue a graduate degree after finishing your bachelor's.
