Study.com offers Biology 101 with a Lab now - jsh1138 - 04-02-2018
I was flipping through the courses offered today and noticed that they had changed Bio 101 to Bio 101 w/lab, and looking at it they don't mail you a kit for the lab like how Straighterline does, they let you do the whole thing in a "virtual lab" from your computer. Not sure how new this is or who accepts it yet, as I just noticed it, but I just thought if you guys hadn't seen it yet you might want to be aware.
I assume that the Chemistry labs and all that stuff will eventually become offerings too, but who knows.

It's a virtual lab, and you have to buy a 3-month subscription to Labster for $40, but it does look like a good option for someone who "needs" a lab, but doesn't "need" to do an actual lab (I'm thinking of COSC's lab science requirement). It's also going to be your cheapest route at $139 (I'm assuming you'll take another course as well), since SL's Bio w/Lab is $99 membership fee, $59 for the Bio course, $49 for the lab, and $79+ shipping for the lab kit (a total of $286+).
