PSA: Everyone who used Avon's code for Sophia

You can ask to add another course if you are just waiting on grading.

Sorry, I don't think I wrote that right: I'm not waiting on both courses to finish grading. Right now I'm just using 1 slot for touchstone courses and the other slot for everything else. I've already completed about 30 credits with Sophia, and I don't really think it'll take more than a month or 2 at most to finish everything else I'm interested in.

I'm staying away from all the courses with more than 2 touchstones because at one point I was waiting on grading for the final touchstone for 1 course and the first touchstone for another course, and when I asked for another course to be added I was told they usually only add an extra course if it's the final touchstone I'm waiting on, not the first ones. Whoever I chatted with still gave me an extra course, but he told me it was this time only. I think this chat person was also named Joshua, not sure if it was the same guy who basically told me I was out of luck for the $79 membership.

On the other hand, shortly after I first joined Sophia, I was waiting on a touchstone for 1 course and had another course that I just didn't feel like working on at the moment, and I chatted with Juan who added another course no problem.

If I have extra time after I hit my goal, maybe I'll try 2 touchstone courses at once and see if they'll let me add another course, but so far this method isn't slowing me down.

I hate that we are paying for this courses and today the higher the monthly subscription at SDC all my assignment are graded in 2 days the work very fast.

To be fair, this is the longest wait I've had for a touchstone to be graded. The other ones, except for the first Economic Futures touchstone (which took a week), were usually only a couple days. My Communication at Work touchstone was the quickest, it was graded within 12 hours. It just might be that Economic Futures is slow to grade.

Hey, sorry for the necro bump but I tried this approach and it no longer works. It just gives a coupon for 10% off now. Wonolo is another Perkspot affiliate that gives the same code. 

I'm a TESU student and Saylor does have several free courses, but I'm going to go the Coursera route for now. I got a full ride for the IBM cybersecurity professional certificate and then there's the American Dream Academy site that gives you another one for free. That should cover probably 9 UL alone. Saylor has a few required math courses that I plan on taking (statistics and calculus) really cheap. The rest I'm using my Amazon career choice benefit to cover and am taking through TESU.
