Looking for UL Courses
#1
I'm looking for some upper courses in communications, sociology, and psychology. I've already checked out SDS, SL, Sophia, and Davar. I have found a few that will work for me. Just looking for others to keep in mind. Anyone know of any specific colleges that may offer them for inexpensive tuition without being admitted? Thanks!

Right now, Coopersmith looks good for UL Psych & Social Science courses, if your school takes NCCRS.  I took Abnormal Psych, Drugs, Society and Human Behavior, Family Therapy, and Foundations of Stress Managment from them, but they have plenty more.  $150 each plus the ProctorFU fee, targeted study guides included, textbooks optional but usually available at Amazon or eBay fairly cheaply.  https://www.coopersmithcc.net/shop/

Do a search of Purdue Global on this site. Purdue is offering FREE courses, 2 or 3 or which are upper level. You may not be able to squeeze under the wire for enrollment, but trying doesn't hurt.

Are those courses easy? How long did it take you? I am pretty sure Excelsior accepts them and I need 24 UL credits.

Yeah, I'm not going to answer those questions except to say that they're upper level, and self-paced, respectively.
