Staighterline- freshman year for $999 - peace123 - 06-18-2010
Ok this is the first time I recall seeing this on the Straighterline website.
Thought it might help some people out.
Start college with online college courses - StraighterLine

Very good find. While too late for me this is really an amazing deal. Normally it is what $99 + $39 per course so $138 per course? So with that pricing you would be at $1242.
If you are a true freshman and need/can use all of these courses that is phenomenal. Now partnered with Excelsior as well and ACE approved, it looks like a promising program.

Nice find - esp. if you are leaning intro business (the accounting courses don't transfer well into other majors)

Wow. That's absolutely phenomenal!
I do wish that one could test drive a course, even for a day or two just to make sure they like the program before a purchase that substantial.

If you really needed to take all of those courses and planned on it taking you 6+ months, you'd save money in the long run. If you can bang out a course every 2 weeks, you'd be better off not doing that.

You could save a couple hundred dollars doing that way but I don't see that happening if the person is going through the courses properly and getting decent grades. 4.5 months of different courses spending a few hours a day to knock it out within 2 weeks each will burn most people out.
