Yes Rachel I ask them I just want to enroll in the self paced YOURWAY program several times and adviser said NO is not for international students.

So I can not follow this program at all.

Oh, that's a bummer :-(

Lots of confusion here, so I decided to write to ONU for clarification on the admissibility of self-paying international students applying to their YourWay online courses, intending to study from outside the U.S. and with no need for student visa. An admission counselor came back to me that international students are allowed to participate in this course, with no restriction and condition. 

I believe gams007 already has a F1 student visa and hence got rejected by ONU, for the rest of us internationals you should have no problem applying to YourWay courses so long as you are outside of the U.S. and not holding any student visa.

PM sent, hope you get this sorted out and managed to sign up for the YourWay courses, let us know how things go. I'll sign up once I get the remaining Sophia courses out of the way.
