    The University of Alabama's continuing education department accepts max 45 ACE credits, total 90 transfer credits out of 120.
    I just confirmed this with their admissions.

    They offer many online undergraduate degree programs:

    Tution fee is $375 per credit:

    So once you successfully transfer 45 ACE credits and 45 RA credits, you'll be able to get their degree for $11,250 ($375 x 30).


    The University of Alabama has a great reputation:

    If that 45 RA transfer credit can be UExcel and TECEP, then that would be interesting. Otherwise... well, even without that it would be okay for someone who already earned a lot of credit at a community college or whatever.

    Syracuse University accepts up to 90 credits as well.
    • You may transfer credits from accredited American colleges and universities; credits from approved institutions in other countries; credits from external examinations; and extra-institutional learning.
    It is, however, more expensive but also a more prestigious university. $695/credit x 30 = $20,850.

    and they won't accept ACE credits.

    Unviersity of Alabama will accept up to 45 ACE credits from study.com, sophia.org, etc.

    Did you confirm that? This phrase is ambiguous: "credits from external examinations; and extra-institutional learning."

    Interesting... I will send them an email to figure out if they accept ACE credits from study.com.
