ASU credit for $99 until 08-17-2020!

[natshar]

Actually they aren't $99. They are FREE!! You pay the $99 after you pass to convert it to College Credit. This is pretty cool because people can try out a course and if they don't like it or fail they aren't out anything. There is no money to be paid upfront.

The only annoying thing this is you have to pay to convert the course by August 17th. Which means you have to finish before then. The problem is a lot of the courses aren't available to start until after August  17th or wouldn't be done by August 17th to pay the $99.

Because of the August 17th deadline the offer can only be used for the following 5 courses:

College Algebra (self-paced)
Pre Calc (self-paced)
English Comp I (8 wks June 9th start)
Human Origins (8 wks June 9th start)
Health and Wellness (8 wks June 9th start)

Or anyone enrolled in ASU EA course with a previous start date.

Still a good deal though. $100 for RA graded credit is an absolute steal. This is the best kind of transfer credit RA 4-yr Univesity credit will probably be accepted at almost any school. Do all 5 and you got 15 credits for $500 that's crazy! Additionally, you could have to pay $20 to send transcripts to school of your choice.

This post was all my own research, I did not contact ASU. Maybe ASU will let you pay ahead for the courses with August 18th start date, in that case, this offer would apply to more courses.

They aren't free, they are $25 to enroll.  The $99 is the amount you pay AFTER you get your grade to add to your transcript, so I'm thinking that they purposefully meant to have that deadline date as it was - so that a (relatively) few people can take advantage of this.

Since my son is taking English Comp I (March 17 start date, we enrolled before all of this happened), he's on there daily, and they've added a few courses that are self-paced: English Comp I, Brief Calculus, and Calculus for Engineering majors.  There are also a bunch of courses that started on 3/17 that look like you can sign up late for, and those are all 8-week courses.

So again, it's $25 to take the course, and then $99 to get it put on a transcript AFTER you complete the course, deadline 8/17; or $400 to get it put on a transcript if you complete the course AFTER 8/17.

Good to know. I didn't see where it said $25 fee to enroll but that totally makes sense.

On the site it didn't say the English and Calc was self-paced but if this is the case now, that is great news. 

I created an account but it said it would be 2-3 days before they approve me. I need a math class as one of my final degree requirements and I can't do CLEP or ACE for this one, but I can do RA transfer credit. So I'm hoping I do it this way.

On ASU's site it seems to say this $25 fee "This fee has been removed until August 17, 2020 as part of the ASU's response to the COVID-19 pandemic."

You're right.  Because my son is already enrolled and taking a course, I don't have access to that page on his dashboard so I didn't see that.

On the regular page, it doesn't show that the courses I listed are self-paced, but they show up that way on my son's dashboard.  Interesting.

===================
About the formats
Self-paced (please note that the self-paced offering will start on 04/14/2020)

Self-paced courses allow students to complete course assignments at their own pace, as long as the course is completed within a year. Self-paced courses are great for:

* students who want to start right away
* students who are self-directed and can set and stick to a plan for completing the course
* students who may want to either go faster or slower than the instructor-paced version
===================

Which one is easier for English 1, ASU or Sophia?

It is unlikely someone took both.

Tip for College Algebra/Precalc:

Unless they've changed since I took it, the practice tests are very, VERY accurate to the final (which is 100% of your grade). If you get the hang of all the problems on the practice tests, you'll do well on the final and get a good grade in the course.

I registered on ASU yesterday. Today I received an email saying the following (among other things):

"As part of our commitment to supporting the success of the communities we serve, we are temporarily waiving the $25 credit eligibility fee until August 17, 2020."

This is an amazing deal if you all need *graded* credits to get into a program that requires one. If you are going to say, a local university with an AACSB program for business or some other program you're interested in, they may require graded credits, this would be the ticket at the price. It would rival NMJC and the other junior colleges unless your state offers cheaper tuition.

Yep that is exactly what I'm doing. Math is one of my final degree reqs. Plus the self-paced makes it potentially quicker than CC as well. 

And lets not forget most schools limit the amount of CC credit at around 60 but 4-YR uni credit usually has no limit. So say someone has an associate's degree but only took basic math then this would be perfect for transfer.
