Cheap Self-Paced GE - jnmhorn - 08-31-2010

Hi,

I was wondering if anyone knew of any cheap self-paced general education classes that could be transfered to Humboldt State University. I know of StraighterLine, I was wondering if there are any ones that are similar.

If they accept credits from an ACE transcript, try ALEKS or Penn Foster as well.

Global University $110 x credit, it might be less if you are overseas or if you are in the military. Classes required you to write one paper and take a multiple choice final. If the course is offered for 3 credits you need to write 2 papers instead of 1.

Louisiana State University has a large amount of self-paced courses that work out to $80/credit. Also, University of Wyoming has a decent collection for about $100/credit and Brigham Young University has what seems to be an endless supply of such courses for $150/credit. All of these are Regionally accredited and most likely to be accepted by any school as transfer credit (some schools do have a limit on how many correspondence courses can be accepted for a degree, so it would be wise to figure out what that limit is, and, if "correspondence" or "independent study" shows up on the transcript from the school you take the courses from.
