With the cancelling of TA, your base's education office should have a lot more time on their hands. They can use that time to show you the more traditional options available. I'm sure there are the usual suspects over there (UMUC, Oklahoma, etc). UMUC is very generous with non-traditional credit and are a respected school, so maybe they are an option. CLEP is not for everyone, but which ones did you take? Some are very difficult, even for the seasoned CLEPer.
Like others have said, I would not recommend a Nationally Accredited (DETC) degree. There are many military friendly choices out there. Let me know if I can assist.
CLEPS Passed: 10 DSST Passed: 11 TECEPS: 1

Don't waste time by trying to save time. The only sure way to complete your degree is to knock out credits quickly and efficiently.
Don't let easiness bite you in the rear. Know your endgame (where you want to be) and plan backward from there. Your education is a means to an end.
Be honest professionally, socially and academically. There are people (especially little ones) who look up to you and they're going by your example.
Be proud. Whether you're an Engineer or Fast Food worker, there is honor and dignity in hard work.
Picking on people weaker than you only proves that you are a weak person.
