Common theme is how quickly you complete can save you a lot of money. Step one would be map out all the Shmoop courses you could use for the degree then try and get them all done in a month subscription. I think someone on here did like 12 or more in one month. Shmoop courses are not fun but if you need 1 or more its worth it. I think the cost is $88 and you can get as many courses done in that time as possible. This can bring your total cost way down. The same with study.com's guardian scholarship. You should apply for that and if you get it take all the psych courses you don't have. I would focus 100% on psych course with study.com as you can get a bunch of the other stuff other places or cheaper. Also ALEKS is a cheap source for up to 12 math credits that can fit into many areas. Then there is the $25 saylor exams for credit that can save you a ton if you use those. So outside of the "Fixed" cost you can be looking at a whole different number depending on how it goes for you speed wise.
Before Reimbursement or the Scholarship I am at 24.43$ per credit for 121 credits. With Guardian Scholarship my amount is $19.04 per credit then I was lucky enough to get CLEP reimbursement so my true amount per credit is $14.70. It will be $12.79 is funding comes back and I get reimbursed for the two TECEPs.
Please note that number is with 44 or so credits earned at CC where my PELL and NYS TAP covered just about every penny of the courses. I did pay for books but I am not counting those as it would be to hard to figure out that number. Also I sold a bunch of the books back for a decent amount and I rented other books for really cheap.
