WGU Academy is a good choice since they use the StraighterLine platform for $150/month, they only offer 4-5 courses, but that can go into the degree plan. For me, I don't like spending money and I think it's more worth it to get the $2000 SL Scholarship instead. If the OP would like, they can do the WGU Academy and then take more SL courses for the scholarship.
Example, I pay for the same courses or different ones at StraighterLine directly and apply for the Scholarship, it'll be $2000 over 4 terms. If I get the degree done in 1 term - scholarship will only be $500. It will pay for at least 8-9 SL courses and I save that $150/month, plus the term tuition is discounted further from $3500 to $3000/term or whatever the current term pricing is...
