Study.com all access? - Clepper43 - 10-27-2019

Do all levels of Study.com have access to the same content, even the homeschool membership? 

I am aware that in order to get college credit, you have to be on College Accelerator for $199. But all the other plans say "access to 79,000 video lessons."

For example the test prep pricing says "access to 79,000 + test prep video lessons."

Are all these videos accessible to anyone with a plan, but they have different names to market them?

I could contact SDC about this but I figured you guys will know! Big Grin

I think the subscriptions are:

Basic $39.99/month gives access to video lessons/transcripts (no quizzes)
Premium $59.99/month gives access to quizzes chapter practice exams (no credit earning exams)
College Accelerator $199/month gives access to 2 final exams for credit and ability to purchase 3 more final exams @ $70 each

I wasn't aware they had a subscription for homeschoolers, so I'm not sure what that would include.

Yes, the homeschool account has access to all the same classes.

That's good to know. Smile

What is the membership rate for a homeschool account? Is it limited to only one student? Does it include access to all quizzes/tests/tutoring ect?

The annual membership is about $400, so $34/mo. It is for one student. I'm not sure how long the discount is available or if it is always available to yearly payers.

I was thinking to use that to preview/test prep and upgrade when finishing courses for college credit, but I'm not sure if paying the monthly as we go would be easier.

With the tests and quizzes? I would assume with everything but not the college credit. It does keep a dashboard of all your kids I guess.

You can do a monthly homeschool account (the usual $60) and switch to College Accelerator when/if you want to get ACE college credit. You can purchase an annual account (paid in full up front and averages $32/month) BUT you can't switch to CA plan because one is an annual and one is a monthly plan. You can use the material to study for CLEP, etc.  All quizzes and tests are saved in either account except for the finals for college credit (need a CA plan for that). HTH

Might want to verify that it keeps the progress when upgraded. I believe I heard on the homeschool group, that the homeschool account does not. I haven’t personally verified it. I just looked for a recent post -on oct 11 one of the mods told a user, so I assume it has not changed.

All Study.com memberships maintain course progress, so you are able to switch/upgrade/downgrade between plans.
