I don't think COSC has a partnership with ALEKS, so probably not.

It could be. It depends on what they decide, if they do follow this route.

Would it be possible to complete 9 upper level classes before July 1st? 
My daughter is presently working on English 102 and Speech with SL. In addition to those, she will have 9 upper level classes left to complete and plans to use Study.com.

Can someone please tell me:

1.)Are the Study.com UL classes bogged down with papers or projects?

2.)Which 3 UL Business classes, at Study.com, will be the fastest to complete?

3.)Where can we find which Business concentration category (the 9 credits) each of the UL Study.com Business courses will fit into? Does it matter that all 3 are in one of the categories or can they be random?

Thank you in advance to anyone who is willing to give us advice!
(If there is a better place for me to post these questions, please let me know.)

You may want to consider Davar and/or Coopersmith for some of her UL courses.  They're all self-paced, without the videos and other support of SDC.  Some of them have assignments, but many of them do not.  If your daughter were to order any necessary textbooks, (I used eBay and Amazon) study more or less full-time, and then review the provided materials (both Davar and Coopersmith provide targeted study guides) prior to each exam, she may be able to take an exam every four or five days.

Since Davar allows use of either ProctorU or RPNow, you can take advantage of RPNow's lack of a scheduling requirement.  For example, you might schedule and study for a Coopersmith ProctorU exam with a one-week window, while also studying for a Davar exam.  Then whenever she feels comfortable taking the Davar exam, she can just sign in and take it, while staying on target for the Coopersmith exam, which requires ProctorU and a scheduled start time.

As far as pricing goes, Coopersmith is $150 for a 3-credit course, and Davar is $70-80, except that any two business courses are 2 for $99.

Thanks for the heads-up!  FWIW, they do seem to take Davar.

As of very, very soon, Charter Oak will only accept (a) transfer credit from regionally accredited schools, (b) Study.com, © StraighterLine, and (d) Sophia.org. And I believe also CLEP and DSST.

There goes my ALEKS College Algebra. Thank God Sophia is free right now to make it up.

Regarding CSM, I thought they were partnered with COSC? https://www.csmlearn.com/product/ACEcredit

If that’s the case then CSM should still be good for credit. It says “partnered schools” and “guaranteed” a lot on their site. I know it’s just 3 Liberal Arts elective credits, but it’s $39 and might be the push someone needs to graduate.

I see COSC lsited under "Which colleges give credit for CSM?", but it might be outdated.

I was wondering about ALEKS too. 

What about Saylor? They are listed as a partner, at least for now.

https://www.saylor.org/partners/credit-partners/

Another thing that makes it hard is COSC seems to limit their UL from alternate sources.

I could swear the list at SDC for accepted UL credits keeps getting smaller and smaller?
