Once you finish their course, your course will be transcripted on UoT Austin transcript.
However, they charge $850 per a course.

Price is not bad, better than BYU. 
I will ask TESU which of these can transfer as UL for a BALS., I imagine anything starting with a 3 or 4 is UL at UofArkansas

It's a bit weird for self-paced courses. You have to request to be allowed to enroll and MAYBE you'll be allowed or maybe you'll be denied and/or have to take a different course instead. It might be worth it if you absolutely need one of UArk's courses but that's still pretty strange.
In progress:
TESU - BA Computer Science; BSBA CIS; ASNSM Math & CS; ASBA

Completed:
Pierpont - AAS BOG
Sophia (so many), The Institutes (old), Study.com (5 courses)
ASU: Human Origins, Astronomy, Intro Health & Wellness, Western Civilization, Computer Appls & Info Technology, Intro Programming
Strayer: CIS175, CIS111, WRK100, MAT210

This is not new, it's been around for years. Just an FYI, they do add/remove courses fairly regularly, so your post will be outdated within a matter of months. For anyone who looks at this post later on.

Anything 3000 or 4000 level is considered UL, and you have a VERY high likelihood of TESU bringing it in as UL. Just be careful as to what you take, as many of these won't count as Liberal Arts (so would be free electives).
