Northcentral Tech: $134/credit Virtual College
#1
Sanantone posted a link a while back for Northcentral Technical College and its anytime courses.  They seem to have greatly expanded their online offerings and now offer an entire virtual college with a really nice selection of courses at $134 per credit hour.  Virtual college students pay in-state tuition no matter the location.

Very interesting. They have a mathematics certificate that only requires 3 courses ending with trig or calc. I wonder how they feel about people trying to transfer in all or most of their credits.

This is a 2-yr college that offers AA/AS degrees, technical diplomas, and certificates. Basically a CC (which is why the prices are so good).

Looks like you need to complete 25% of the coursework there to earn a diploma or degree but it doesn't specify say that for their certificates.

You can earn up to 75 percent of the credit needed to complete an associate degree or technical diploma, and up to 50 percent needed to complete a certificate.
