Hi All,
As you may know, ASPEN just changed their rate to $900 per 3 credit course for the first 4 courses, and then $200 per course after that ;:confused: this adds up to $8800 for 60 credits which I need to finish my Bachelor in business as I have an associate degree already. Does anyone know of a regionally accredited school for a bachelor in business with rates lower or comparable to that?

Thanks for your help,

Actually for undergrad it's 750 per course not 900, not that it matters much. You're talking about less than $140 per credit which may not be easy to find. You may also want to check with Aspen on how many, if any, of the 60 you could complete via DANTES, CLEP, or other exams which would bring the price down farther.

There's also the option of the 'big 3' Excelsior, TESC, and COSC. They're mentioned many times on this board. The big advantage to those three is that you can test out of many courses which would greatly reduce total cost.

Thanks for your help,Actually, I didn't know that. Their website still says $250/hour. But, hey, tuition hikes are a fact of life if you're a student. Get over it!
