My RA credit collection... the bane of degree hacks it seems .. past the "easy" (& $115 total costed) 15 SH we can snag via ASU/Clackamas CC/JSU/Pima CC. still leaves you 9 (if 24 needed) to 15 (if 30 needed) RA credits "short".
The Absolute "cheapest" path to RA credits past this..., seem to be the referenced "Luna Community College" then, "TEL Learning" ($44 & $67, per credit, respectfully)
/
6 credits, via Luna CC (to stay cheap) = $282
3 credits, via TEL Learning (fill remaining)= $201
- Sub-Total = $483, for 9 RA credits
/
Together thats 115 + 483 = $598 for 24 RA credits ($24.92 PER RA CEREDIT)
Now lets just lay this out, flat, its "cheap", but its a rough 8 to 12 month time investment (2x College "terms", at least, maybe better as 3 terms for "more comfort")

Edison Accelerate Fee
"Edison Accelerate" allows students with substantial prior credits to reduce their Credit Hour Residency Requirement to just 6 required course credits (SOS-1100: Critical Information Literacy and Capstone) *Beyond the Credit Hour Residency Requirement, Edison Accelerate does not waive any degree policies or requirements.

- In-state or out-of-state associate/bachelor's: $3,354 <-- basically doubling degree cost...
