How valid is all this information for International Students?

why not consider University of London's IR program?

https://london.ac.uk/courses/internation...ations-bsc

might be slightly more expensive, at £6408.

Pretty much as Rachel said - I can't find any options here that would work out as cheap.  Or, for that matter, any universities that will accept so many credits from outside low-cost sources.

As an Australian, you get an interest-free loan for your uni studies that only has to be paid off once you earn above a certain amount (around 45k-50k, I think?). Many Australian unis are also quite generous with their RPL - you can even use work experience.

Doing an American degree would be a lot more work in terms of working out credits, and cost a lot more upfront.

That's definitely something to look into a bit more closely.  One of the things that appeals with this US centric approach is the apparent flexibility to do things at your own pace.  I've never found anything similar in Australia, though it's possible it exists... but usually you preselect your units for a semester and then you're locked in.  Flexibility appeals when doing it as a side project with work and kids.
