What happens if you fail a Sophia course?

[rachel83az]

Sophia is open book, so it's very difficult to actually fail a Sophia course as long as you are actually putting in a solid effort. That said, I think the policy is that you have to wait 60 days before you are allowed to restart from the beginning.

Depending on what you already know, most Sophia courses can be completed in a matter of days to a week or so. Most students can complete most of what Sophia has to offer in a matter of 2-3 months. Courses with multiple Touchstones (see https://degreeforum.miraheze.org/wiki/So...lency_List to see which those are) can take significantly longer to complete. We currently do not recommend that students take English Comp or the database course from Sophia. English Comp has inconsistent grading and, although it has no Touchstones, the database course has a massive amount of work. The database course alone can potentially take 3-4 weeks to complete and it really requires a student to have at least two monitors.
