****Sorry about the title typo!****
I suppose this is unlikely, but before I follow through with my current plans I wanted to check. Can one get a degree by accumulating enough credit (from many venues like CLEP, FEMA, life experience, IT certs, AP, etc) that classes are never required? I've never heard of a college doing this without at least one semester (15 cred) of attendance, but I figured it wouldn't hurt to double check. I guess I'm concerned about actually going back to a structured class setting (even online, anything with deadlines), I always hated it and now I run a business and want to avoid it, even if it is only five total classes.
