OnlineDegree No Longer Proctored! (For now)

[bjcheung77]

Hmm, College Hacked is a member of this board... I think a few people who do the online Youtube videos about college degree hacking are members of this board as well, or at least 'borrow' some content here and there. Ben, Clifford, are both TESU graduates, Ryan a WGU, etc...

Also, I'm super happy I was able to help at least one person on this site!

Yes! I really appreciate it! Just started the Nutrition and Climate Change course.

Just a reminder, even though they may have this as a freebie now, they're for individuals who are 18+, US citizen or permanent residents...
Here's a post of mine from 5 months back: https://www.degreeforum.net/mybb/Thread-...#pid418951

It would still be great for that motivated US citizen high school senior who just turned 18 and is graduating in a few months and is willing to go to TESU/SNHU where they'll be taken with ACE credits!

I just watched a video from College Hacked on YouTube about a 19-year-old who graduated with his BA in Interdisciplinary Studies from Liberty University with alternative credits.

I was recently talking about Liberty University.  Their degrees are very hackable, with lots of free electives per degree.

I have taken four courses with OnlineDegree.com, and the quality of their videos is the best I've seen from any alternative credit provider.

For each lesson, only the first video is crucial for the information used in quiz questions. The rest are supporting materials that you can skip through. While the cost is affordable, the courses are longer compared to other providers. To speed things up, you can watch the videos at 2x speed. However, they block you from advancing to the next video until a set time period has passed.

I love the flexibility of Liberty University. I think they have a lot to offer for some students.

I did the Introduction to Programming course at OnlineDegree.com. The inability to skip ahead on the videos drove me crazy.

I did the Introduction to Programming course at OnlineDegree.com.  The inability to skip ahead on the videos drove me crazy.

What I do is have 2 courses at the same time. I leave the windows with the video paused at a 1 second point and do other stuff on the computer until the mark read button can be clicked, then do the same with each video of the lesson until everything is unlocked and then watch the 1st video a 1.5x speed. Doing 2 courses together speeds things up a lot.

Did someone verify with the NCCRS which classes are still actively recommended for credit?  I recall one or two of their classes may have expired.  Anyways, here's the NCCRS, make sure to review the recommendation for credit dates: https://www.nationalccrs.org/organizatio...edegreecom
