I have looked through the transfer guidelines and they seem to accept 90 credit max. This is the old-school way before everything went online. You can mail in assignments or email them with an online proctor test. Good coverage on business and psychology and many others starting each month.

Yeah. I did notice that they still have a by mail in option, even though they have an on line option. Interesting. I’m wondering how they stack up with the other schools talked about here, as far as price/credit acceptance/etc. They are listed on Sophia as a partner school.

I think for someone who needs this option it's okay, but if you can use the internet you can get cheaper. I used to mail in my assignments when I was in the Army, and I think some of these could be great if you travel often, and cannot deal with dates.

Definitely not the cheapest way to get credit but it has it's place. I can see it being great for military folks who don't always have internet access or regular hours to study. Tuition is significantly less for active military members. They do have a wide range of classes though.

Program Tuition Per Credit Hour*
Online Undergraduate $498
Online Nursing $498
Self-Paced $330
*Number of credit hours may vary by course

BYU Independent Study is much less.
