• Review UoPeople’s current policies on accepting ACE-recommended credits.
  
• Map alternative-credit courses to specific degree requirements (rather than taking random electives).
  
• Confirm any planned courses with an advisor or official source before enrolling, especially if you’re close to graduation or a major milestone.

New $95/month plan with course access
Study.com now has a $95/month plan that includes access to a set of ACE-recommended courses (70 options, including many standard gen ed subjects). You can work on two courses at the same time but can complete unlimited courses each month, so how much you complete in a month depends on your pace.
 
If you tend to study consistently week-to-week, this kind of structure can make it easier to batch several courses into a single subscription period.
 
Open-book finals (no proctoring)
Final exams on Study.com are now open book and open note, without a proctoring requirement. This removes the need to schedule proctored sessions and can be helpful for students who are working or juggling family responsibilities.
 
Faster grading & continuous progress
Assignments are typically graded within a couple of days, so you don’t have to pause all progress while waiting for feedback.
 
Mobile app for flexible study time
Study.com also offers a mobile app where you can watch lesson videos, take quizzes and track your progress. That can help if a lot of your study time happens in short windows (commutes, lunch breaks, etc.), rather than long dedicated study blocks.
 
Transfer & planning tips
 
Policies and transfer options can change, so it’s always important to double-check with UoPeople before taking other courses for credit. A few general planning steps that some students find helpful:

• Review UoPeople’s current policies on accepting ACE-recommended credits.
  
• Map alternative-credit courses to specific degree requirements (rather than taking random electives).
  
• Confirm any planned courses with an advisor or official source before enrolling, especially if you’re close to graduation or a major milestone.
