    I am looking for a bachelor degree in mathematics. More for self fulfilment. Anyone knows of a cheap online maths degree I can take slowly as and when I have the time?

    It's popular among degreeforumers to pursue a TESU AS or BA in Mathematics, often together with Computer Science, making heavy use of low-cost and often self-paced alt-credit from providers like Sophia.org and study.com.

    SNHU and Liberty also have bachelor's in mathematics and are relatively friendly to transfer and alt credit and relatively inexpensive, Liberty especially if you qualify for a tuition discount. You'd have the 30-credit residency requirements at each school and the Bible course and Biblical integration everywhere requirements in Liberty courses. The courses from each school itself would not be self-paced.

    The WGU BA in Educational Studies, Secondary Mathematics Education overlaps with a straight mathematics degree and has WGU's CBE self-pacing. The relatively new Educational Studies degree is not for teaching licensure and does not require any teaching practicum. With all-you-can-eat per-term pricing how expensive it would be would depend on how quickly you'd complete it. It's only available in the US, most of Canada, and to some US military abroad.

    You might look at the University of London online BSc in Mathematics and Economics, under academic direction of the London School of Economics.

    With your prior degrees you might be eligible to enter a master's in mathematics directly, or with just a few levelling courses if you don't have something required like Calculus III or Linear Algebra.
