Cheap, Accredited Online Degrees... Where are the windfalls?
#19
Personally, I am more interested in their trades, e.g. Carpentry, than anything else. Not that getting a degree in it means anything for my future. I'm really only after some insight and starting my own woodworking hobby. It's not a practical application on my part for future employment in the field.

BUT! I am seriously wondering why these schools aren't mentioned here. I think they're pretty great at first glance. Reading into them they have some value. What am I overlooking?

--------------------

About Ashworth College, each course has 8 quizzes and two papers.  The course is self-paced and you can complete a course realistically in three days.  The school has their own challenge exams for $50 each, which means you can complete 10 courses for $500.  Each course comes with a free book.  My BSBA cost me about $2800 and I did 60 credits in one year there while doing an additional 30 credits at my CC.  They were very ACE friendly and applied all of my ALEKS credits toward my degree.  They also did not ask for proof of language for my ACTFL credits, so I am assuming you could take the English exams and transfer those in too.

The drawback is that it is DEAC accredited which limits where you can go to grad school i.e. Liberty, APUS, WGU to name a few.
