Are there fast ways to get graded RA credits besides UExcel, SL through COSC, or racing through self-paced courses?
And are there any self-paced for under $280/cr for undergrad or under $350-380/cr for grad? Besides VESI/Teacherline/Annenburg/ACT and the Sophia/Capella Educ credits? (I don't know if those are graded anyway but if anyone knows if you can get a grade for them, I am interested in that too.)
Otherwise, I think I'm going to do non-self-paced this summer, since the summer courses are quicker. But I won't finish until about August. I'm interested in getting the credits faster if possible, so I can apply sooner to the grad program which needs GPA. (They only need undergrad credits, but I feel like I'm getting more for my money if it's grad credits for only $100/cr more.)

Have you checked to make sure you're eligible to get a GPA? When I graduated COSC in 2011 (so I'm probably irrelevant,) they didn't give you a GPA unless you had completed a certain percentage of your courses actually through COSC.
This didn't really affect my grad school however, because they looked at the grades I had and just calculated the actual GPA that I would have gotten. But , according to COSC, at least back then, everything I had including B&M grades were pass/fail even if they had a letter grade since the only class I actually took at COSC was the capstone.

I don't need a real GPA
They will calculate it based on the new courses.

Thank goodness! I was worried about not getting a "real" GPA and it didn't matter. It just meant that I couldn't graduate COSC with honors, which I made up for in grad school
So glad to hear that it doesn't matter!

Thanks!
I wish I had been able to graduate with honors, but the cost would have been too high! I will have to make up for it in grad school too
