I am looking at NYIT's Ellis College, University of Maryland, and Kaplan University. They all seem a bit expensive but I am a full-time single mom and work full-time. Thanks.

Of the three you list, NYIT Ellis probably has the best reputation.
An important consideration to think about - if you plan to take your state's CPA exam, you need to make sure the program you pick is approved for that purpose.
some other choices include Excelsior College, City U Seattle, Thomas Edison State, Upper Iowa, Utah State, Columbia (Mo), Eastern Oregon, Emporia State, Indiana Wesleyan, Liberty U, Northeastern U, NW Missouri State, Old Dominion, Saint Mary of the Woods, Southern New Hampshire U., U Hawaii Oahu, UMass, U Wisconsin, .....
Louisiana State has a good selection of online accounting courses but no degree program online.
A lot of community colleges have their AS in accounting online. This is a pretty inexpensive option if your local CC is one of them. Just make sure it's accounting and not bookkeeping. Or, you could do your gen ed/core via the CC online and save a few $10Ks that way.
Excelsior College has a track in their accounting for the NY CPA. The advantage to Excelsior is that you can take your classes at any school (find the cheapest) and transfer them in.

I don't know anything about Stratford. Many traditional universities now have online degree programs. Since the university is accredited, the degree counts for more. Look for online programs in accounting, compare the costs and the reputation of the schools, and decide which one would be best for you.

NYIT Ellis College or brick and mortar college should be your priority. As for the tuition fee, try negotiating through edu agent, they usually can get you a better deal. Most of them wont charge you a penny for asking, especially the online one such as http://paramountdeal.com/resource/online-degree/ which is not fussy at all.

I believe that kaplan u is one of those online, for-profit schools which one would better be served to steer clear from. A major college or uni such as university of md or nyit sounds like a better bet, and most colleges offer online courses these days.
