I am searching for an accredited College/University that offers courses online in an accelerated, self-paced format. An example of what I am NOT looking for: University of Phoenix Online offers "accelerated" classes, but they are not self-paced, i.e. and English 101 class takes 5-6 weeks to complete. In a special high school pilot program, I completed 3 years of high school in less than 9 months -- same classes, same tests as everyone else. I'm looking for a similar format for college. |

You can earn credit for the first two years of almost any four year program in the United States by using the CLEP program. (College Level Entrance..) This nation-wide program provides tests of the knowledge taught in each Freshman-Sophomore general education course. You must buy your own textbooks and study on your own. You can find textbook titles at any college bookstore or by contacting educational publishers. CLEP provides a handout of the topics being tested and even a sample test. Many Universities give these exams, usually for a fee of under $100. The University that gives the exam then grant credit to the individual who passes. CLEp should be able to ehlp you find a University that will help you. Often the schools require that you take at least some courses from them because the Universityies school name appears on your transcript, along with "Credit by examinaiton" instead of a grade. Type in CLEP on Google web search and follow the links. This answer is free as I was skimming for another question and knew the best method off the top of my head. |
