Need an Astronomy Lab - btinnc - 08-04-2020

I took the Intro to Astronomy course through Study.com, but need to take an Astronomy Lab to satisfy the requirement through COSC.
Unfortunately the Astronomy Lab isn't offered through COSC until the Spring, and I would like to take it and get it out of the way this term.
Does anyone have any advice on where to take it now? Since everything is closed, I would need to take the exam proctored online. Self-paced course would be ideal.
Thank you!

Take Astronomy again in ASU, it includes the course and the lab for just 99$

But register on ASU fast, promotion will finish soon.

Is ASU, Arizona State Univ?
I need to look to see if I could do an entire course. I am taking three other courses this term already, so a fourth might be a stretch.

Seconding the notion for ASU astronomy. It's not the easiest course ever nor is it self-paced but it's still very good. The next (and final) time that you'll be able to take it for $99 is on the 18th. It's an 8-week course.

It will take a few days for you to get registered and approved for the Earned Admissions section, so it's a good idea to get that started now.

If you already took astronomy, the non-lab portion should be super easy. The lab portion is the hard part, especially if math is not one of your strengths.

Thank you both. I wish I would have known of this a couple months ago before I took the full course through Study.com. I just finished that exam last week, and am starting three other classes now. Working full time, I would get myself in trouble trying to take four classes.
