#1
Ok this is the first time I recall seeing this on the Straighterline website.

Thought it might help some people out.

Very good find. While too late for me this is really an amazing deal. Normally it is what $99 + $39 per course so $138 per course? So with that pricing you would be at $1242.


If you are a true freshman and need/can use all of these courses that is phenomenal. Now partnered with Excelsior as well and ACE approved, it looks like a promising program.

Nice find - esp. if you are leaning intro business (the accounting courses don't transfer well into other majors)

Wow. That's absolutely phenomenal!

I do wish that one could test drive a course, even for a day or two just to make sure they like the program before a purchase that substantial.

If you really needed to take all of those courses and planned on it taking you 6+ months, you'd save money in the long run. If you can bang out a course every 2 weeks, you'd be better off not doing that.

You could save a couple hundred dollars doing that way but I don't see that happening if the person is going through the courses properly and getting decent grades. 4.5 months of different courses spending a few hours a day to knock it out within 2 weeks each will burn most people out.
