New Sophia courses? Finance and Business Law

[thebluealbum1]

Does Sophia have new courses coming out soon or am I missing/not seeing courses on their website? Specifically Business Law and Principles of Finance?

The link I saw them on was here: https://www2.acenet.edu/credit/?fuseaction=transcriptsPublic.getCourseSearchResults
Search "Sophia" in the organization name and the list of classes will show up below.

I was adding some courses to my ACE transcript when I saw this on their list of approved courses:

We're collectively guessing those will be available in August. The last time sophia got a new class (College Readiness) it was showing on ACE approved list (in dec 2019) about a month before sophia made it available to take (mid January 2020). We're guessing same thing will happen here with the two new courses and they'll wait until their free offer is done. exciting isn't it?!

Nice find.
Yes, the course is ready but disabled.
We have to wait, and hope for it to be enabled just before July 31.

They're coming. My guess is that they didn't want them to be free since they're brand new. They get us all hooked with this freebie and then they come out with new goodies. Hopefully there will be a lot more coming!

I think the same

I just hope they also reconsider the price of their courses. If they do not, i should buy at least one course in gratitude for what they have done in these months.

With an internet search, they have a lot of discount codes available online I've read on here. I wouldn't pay full price for the courses either.

Yes, true, i think the 3 for 1 courses is the best one. You can get each course for a similar price that study.com, but the quality of the course will be much better.

Anyone have a Capella-linked Sophia account? If so it looks like the Law & Finance courses are available for free.

Parent company of Capella owns Sophia. Probably why the courses are free to Capella students. They're already paying for them really.
