Fast: 6 months.
Slower: 1 year.
If you choose a program with a required capstone course, then that takes 12 weeks to complete.
You can use whatever tests you want. My plan includes credits from a variety of sources: TECEP, CLEP, DSST, Straighterline, Uexcel, ALEKS, Saylor, etc. If you choose the Per Credit Tuition Plan, it does have a 24-credit residency requirement for bachelor's degrees. The cheapest and easiest way to meet that requirement is by taking 8 TECEPs. If your program requires a capstone course, then you can take 7 TECEPs and the capstone course. The rest of your credits can come from other sources. Depending on how much you're being charged for testing fees, it's a little bit cheaper to take CLEPs and DSSTs. They are also easier tests. Oh, and the Saylor courses are free. You just need to pay $25 for the ProctorU fee.
