I think NAU only accepts a maximum transfer of 64 total credits, only 35 of those can be ACE.
Spanish must also be taken at NAU

I'm enjoying using Straighterline, the system is easy to use, basically read the material and then complete the work or quizzes.
It also works out pretty cheap if you can move quickly, some courses can be finished easier than others. I completed Religion and Cultural Anthropology in a week, but I put a lot of time in to it. I will start English next week, it will probably take longer because there are papers to write. I think 3-4 courses a month is doable, and 4-8 courses a month if put a lot of time into it.
If you did 4 courses a month that is $100 for the subscription plus $200 for the courses (depending which courses) which works out at $25 a credit. There is also the price of the books on top of that, but if you plan ahead you should be able to pick them up used. You also have to remember that they are pass/fail courses, if you transfer into TESC etc.. you won't get a grade for them, that might be important depending what the next step is after degree is finished.
Also, if you are going to use Aleks for math, take some time and study up to precalc level on free websites before you sign up. I completed all the courses in my signature, in under a month, for $20 this way. Statistics took the most time (about 40hours) the others I breezed through comfortably.
