GOT AN UPDATE ON SAYLORS EXPIRED COURSES/HERE IS THE INFO

[carsonallen77]

Thanks for your questions. The short answer on course renewal, unfortunately, is that we don't know. We DO plan to put everything back through the recommendation process, but it tends to take many weeks to a few months. My hopeful guess would be summertime (and keeping in mind that renewal is likely, but not guaranteed).

Although somewhat more expensive or arduous, TECEP exams or portfolio reviews through TESU could help replace some of our courses in the ASBA pathway in the near term.
Best,

Usually, a course provider starts the renewal process well before their courses are set to expire, and then ACE will put a temporary extension date out there while they're going through the process. It's kind of strange that Saylor didn't...

This is truly baffling.

Ya, like the email said, no guarantees. I think they are preparing people for the fact that they will not be renewed.  Oh well, at least I can still get some credits.

Yup, I only recommend Saylor courses for those who are totally strapped for cash and don't get tuition assistance/reimbursement or from an overseas developing country. Most courses are poorly structured and sometimes it's hard to pass with one try, even though the practice final is a good indication that you'll be able to pass the course. If in the USA, stick with onlinedegree.com for cheap credits and CLEP/MS. For those outside the USA, then you can go for other recommended providers such as StraighterLine and Study.com
