Sophia Learning - New membership levels and pricing - carrythenothing - 03-15-2022 Received an email a few minutes ago noting these changes/options, effective March 30
Quote:As a valued Sophia member, you have the option to lock in your current membership rate of $79 a month until you cancel. Students who rejoin after cancelling membership will be subject to new membership rates. RE: Sophia Learning - New membership levels and pricing - echo64 - 03-15-2022 A $20 jump on the monthly? Ouch. RE: Sophia Learning - New membership levels and pricing - Vle045 - 03-15-2022 I just saw that email and was going to post the same thing. I was like…. Oooooh…. No more dragging feet. They aren’t doing public codes anymore. So don’t even wait. Get your $79 a month in now unless you are thinking of going for a year. RE: Sophia Learning - New membership levels and pricing - ss20ts - 03-15-2022 $99 a month is still a steal compared to the $329 they were charging per class prior to the pandemic. RE: Sophia Learning - New membership levels and pricing - jsd - 03-15-2022 I hope they're working on new courses. They could rival Study.com if they started to massively expand their offerings. RE: Sophia Learning - New membership levels and pricing - LevelUP - 03-15-2022 Sophia is a part of Capella/Strayer so they could snap their fingers and shut down Sophia altogether if they felt that Sophia was cannibalizing their online college revenue. RE: Sophia Learning - New membership levels and pricing - MNomadic - 03-15-2022 That 4 month plan would still be a good discount over the current price and be the perfect length of time for most anyone to finish as many courses as they wanted/needed to transfer into their degree. The 12 month plan would be a great deal too, especially for those that want to take their time and complete a lot of courses like homeschoolers.

This is true. If my son were to say he wanted to take a “Gap Year” before starting college, I would totally be on board with that idea if he were working on Sophia for that year. ![]() (Dear Lord, please let my kid choose some sort of degree. He is not the type that would do well in a trade. We don’t want him living in our basement the rest of his life! Bahaha.)

Yes, I think it can go either way, but more leaning towards what jsd is saying here. I think they'll be expanding slowly just to start the processes of gaining market share and eating into StraighterLine/Study.com's chunk of the pie. (03-15-2022, 02:28 PM)Vle045 Wrote: This is true.

My niece and nephew are in their late teens, the 4 month or 1 year membership would be ideal to get them started on their journey. RE: Sophia Learning - New membership levels and pricing - Tedium - 03-15-2022 At least they have longer subscriptions again. Better snap up what you need while you can. |
