I am not sure why you posted your question under "Saylor.org, Straighterline, Study.com, InstantCertCredit.com, OnlineDegree.com, Sophia.Org Discussion" because none of these providers offer graduate credits.

If you are looking for university classes - there are gazillions of options but nearly all of them will cost more than UoPeople classes. What is your budget?

Plus, grad credits aren't usually transferable. (Yes, I know that there are exceptions.) So there are no places to just take a single grad level class in the same way that you can at SDC or Sophia. The biggest exceptions are a handful of graduate level classes offered by a couple of universities for teachers, none of which are going to fit in an MBA plan.

Your poll needs to be clarified. You're looking for grad credit which isn't available in ACE form. Business major refers to undergrad. An MBA isn't called a business major. It's called an MBA.

Well, for now, although Saylor does plan to become a degree awarding institution and their plan is to start with an MBA program.

Wow! That's some interesting news. Are they sharing any public information about this yet that you can point us to? I'd love to see more.

Their Executive Director, Jeff Davidson, was a podcast guest:

(It's a Bitcoin podcast, but this episode wasn't about Bitcoin.)

Interesting. I did not know that.

Is there a timeline when Saylor plans for this?

Not to my knowledge. I don't know anything more than was in that podcast episode (which really is worth a listen).
