Basically, each course has 4 units. Each unit ends with a 25 question quiz and small paper (3-4 pages) and ends with a 100 question final. Quizzes and tests are open book. No interaction with instructors. Just feedback on the papers. You choose your own proctor for the final who basically just gets you access to the test. No video or anything like that. There’s no tutoring and no writing center. It’s basically just you reading a textbook and then answering questions and writing about what you learn.
They do accept ACE credits, for anyone who is interested in that. But i don’t know how much they accept.
I don’t know…. Seems kind of over-priced if you are basically teaching yourself. Might as well just learn on Saylor Academy.
Oh I'm soooo sorry they are "overpriced" at $250/credit for their Masters (maybe $50 would be fair so I do agree with you

)and there are no videos to watch and no games to play. When I got my MA from the University of Toronto, there was no "writing center." If you can't write or if you don't want to write, grad school is not for you. Just a thought.
