Cool! I wonder what else is in the works with them. I would like more classes from them. I really enjoy their format. I don't know if I'm thrilled with $329 per course though. I've done them while they were free so it would be hard to go from free to $329 a class. I'm guessing a lot of people would feel that way especially with so many people unemployed right now.

AMAZING!!
Business law is one of those large-boring-difficult courses, the Sophia way in the other hand will made it more easy to deal with.
I think after july 31, Sophia will show up some pretty nice new courses.

How are you seeing these courses? I login and I can't see any of these things. This is pretty exciting though.

The two new ones are listed on the ACE national guide. here http://www2.acenet.edu/credit/?fuseaction=browse.getOrganizationDetail&FICE=1008113
college readiness is course number 31 (and was added early in 2020). Then business law at 32 and now finance at 33 (ooh.. didn't see that until it was pointed out above. thanks). so hopefully the courses will be available soon to register.

Discounts are out there if you know where to look. I took quite a few Sophia courses before the free promo started, and the most I ever paid for one course was $112.50.

I'd like to see some courses on mass media and intercultural communications.

Those are VERY specific course titles to specific colleges. I don't see something that specific happening for any of the alternative credit sites. Sophia already offers College Algebra and Introduction to Statistics which would be higher level than Math for the Liberal Arts.
