I was really surprised to get this as I'm not a US resident, but I got the email early this morning that I have 3 free months. Thank you Study.com!!
Any suggestions on courses? I've been focusing on ALEKS and Shmoop so I haven't delved into Study's courses yet. Thinking of switching to LS as I'm much closer to graduating if I go that route.
Anyway, just feeling grateful towards Study, as they absolutely don't have to offer anything for free, but they do it anyway. 
Goal: Anything. Just need the paper.

If I recall correctly, the 3 free months start the day you receive the scholarship and not the day you decide to start the course, so get started with Personal Finance ASAP since you have to do that before you complete any of the others.
I think I've seen several good things about MAR-441 Digital Marketing, I know there are others too.
Search around on the forums, there are lots of Study threads.
Congrats and good luck!

That's awesome, good for you. Question, when did you apply and how many days did it take for them to reply back?

For me it was almost 2 weeks. I was encouraged in an email from them to tell others about the scholarship! So if you have not tried, try it now!

It took a week or more for me. I thought I just didn't make it so I was really surprised when I got the email.

Start your Study.com stuff Now, your 3months starts on the day you get the e-mail. You want to target Upper Level Classes you cant get anywhere else. so from your signature I would say MAN-372, then do whatever you can on the UL CR area of stuff.
Can't stress the importance of using your scholarship to get the credits you cant get elsewhere. MAN-372 was a lot of work from study.com but manageable. Also probably better then a TECEP(haven't taken one yet though).

NO, you don't have to work for them. You just apply through the study.com link and write a little one or two paragraph reason why the Personal Finance course would benefit you.
