It's possible. Most of us on here are mostly versed on the three assessment colleges (TESC, EC, COSC). It's going to be difficult to beat TESC's price with the TECEP exams, but as you said, if you are going to have to take a CFP exam course anyway, there may be savings.
Although I can't help you very much, I would encourage you to look around to find a program that fits your needs witch schedule, cost and exam readiness. If not, you can always do your original plan.
Good luck.
EDIT: To beat your original cost, you are going to have to find a school that is less than $200 per credit. ($200 x 30 cr = $6,000). Find your maximum price you're willing to pay, divide that by 30, that would be your per credit price point, find schools that meet your price, schedule and readiness. Keep in mind also, that some schools may not accept all your credits for transfer (happened to me with Univ of Wyoming).

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.
