I'm seriously considering this and would love to hear back your experience as you progress. I graduate with an Associates from my CC in 2 months and I want to weigh out my options!

Are the courses in a mandated sequence?

No. On the platform, you can study any course in your program. (even if there is a prerequisite)
It's really flexible, just like their mission. 
But course materials are from ytb, website. Really few original things. If you don't mind, it would be a good choice

Credits: 30 credits from NAU master. 36 credits from nationsuniversity(NA). ACE 274 (sophia+coursera+study.com+saylor) and 8 from worldquant university(NA).


I've sent my transcripts to them as well and am going thru orientation course. But I am feeling a little frustrated that I haven't heard back concerning my transcripts. Because I don't really wanna take courses until I layout a plan based on what credits they have accepted.

I sent my transcripts 4 days ago, so maybe a little early to complain just yet.

Thank you for sharing your experience. Is the Philosophy degree still a thing? Or you merely forget to list it in your first post? If it is, it seems to be the only degree that has its own major, unlike the Liberal Arts concentrations. It is not something that most will care about, but it may mean something to some.

No, you can take any course in any order. They have course exam, course work, and course hearing which is bit too much but its excellent otherwise.

I got the results after 1 week. maybe you have to wait a bit more. But you can try to study the basic course.
