Northern Arizona University Launches Competency-Based Online Degree Program
#8
The information packet also states this: "Prior learning in an academic environment, not life experience, is the basis for awarding transfer credit. You may be awarded no more than 35 credit hours using methods recommended by the Council for Adult and Experiential Learning (CAEL) and the American Council on Education (ACE)."


Only 35 ACE credits Undecided

This program was modeled heavily on WGU's program.
It was started with a $1mil Grant from the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation.
3 degree offerings right now. Liberal Arts, Computer Information Systems, and Small Business Administration (All Bach of Arts).

Only major question I have about this program is what about financial aid? I have looked through the packet, the FAQ's, and the "affordability" section, and I have yet to see anything about financial aid.
