I don't know much about the school even if it is competency based that is a ton of coursework in that period of time. You might be better off doing ACE recommended exams and go for one of the Big 3 if you need that many credits quick.

That is basically the equivalent of finishing one class every three or four days. Are you starting from scratch or do you already know a lot about the field?

yes, i had 23 credit transferred in, i was reading a forum in reddit, came across a guy that finished 55 credits in 3.5 months, it is a subscription based school model.

I mean are you starting from scratch as far as experience and knowledge in the area that is covered in the 85 credits? Are you actually going to need to study and completely read the material?

Honestly, no, I think you need to plan at least two or three semesters. If you get stuck on a difficult class it is going to mess your whole schedule up. Plus it will be really stressful.

One year is more realistic than one semester though. I guess it just depends on the difficulty of the work.

I completed 54 credits in one term using traditional school and CLEP/ACE combinations. So far I hit 79 credits in about 7months or so.
