Straighterline New Proctor Policy Change
Just when I thought SL couldn't get more despicable! How slimy can one company be?
Who started the wiki? Don't they have the final say to get this overturned? And if we do, lets just get their entry removed entirely.

We are currently transitioning the website so that every class clearly lists proctoring is required. However, this is only true for any course purchased on or after November 1st, 2012. If you have any concerns about this feel free to reach out to our student advisors at 877-787-8375 Toll Free or email them at [email protected]. But I assure you that is when the proctoring requirement goes into affect.

A la carte - $399 per course (includes proctoring)
Freshman year - $999 for upto 10 classes (includes proctoring)

I suggest you find an alternative way to gain that credit.
Hell at this point I think I may start a fund to pay people not use SL.

We could privately host the "wiki" somewhere, then SL wouldn't be able to change it...I don't like that they were able to lock the wiki...that's a bunch of crap. I've been relatively quiet on this issue...but the degree forum wiki isn't theirs anymore than it's mine.

I'm always happy to complete the free application waiver for those applying to WGU (I get a free gift from WGU for this).  Just PM me your first/last name and a valid email so I can complete their form.

Most of Straighterline courses are offered by Penn Foster College. I mean, yes Penn Foster is what? Like $275 a course, but if you are comfortable not taking a proctored examination via webcam, than Penn Foster is your best bet.

Only if Penn Foster College can adapt a Straighterline structure of business. Such as introducing a new $98 a month take as many courses as you want type of fee, for the ACE courses they offer. I'm waiting on Penn Foster to chime in on this. *bites nails*

This is exactly why wikipedia and other wiki's are lame.
They let any person or company with money influence them, to allow deceptive posts and content to manipulate general consensus.
Plus, I thought dcan formed the wiki? Doesn't that make him the local admin to control what is locked?
If not we need to see why this Brandon, allowed himself to be influenced to lock out the truth on a wiki that doesn't belong to SL.

And for their actions, this make SL, lower than the dog crap on someone's shoe!

Uh, what? StraighterLine, I do NOT want to hear from you about your policy. You've proved to the members of the forum to be self-serving, and arrogant. Would other forum member tell me about their experiences with exams at, gulp, SL?

Yes, I was not correct on the new pricing.
I mentioned that in another post.
The web site did say 2 different thinks at the same time, that is where my confusion came from.

So 99.00 + 49.00 is still a good price.
