Online Credits??

Any Institutions offered online courses with credits in low price?

 

Two oft mentioned are Louisiana State University and Fort Hays State University.

 

Re: Re: Online Credits??

Can I simply apply the online courses without applying for a program? how can I do that? Will transcripts be offered?

Since I would like to use those credits for transfer.

Thanks for your info!

 

Is Thomas Edison State University OK?

 

It should be College

Not online, but distance format. I took the Fraud/Forensic accounting course and found it pretty good. The cost is great!

 

How much is it?

I am interested in Psychology courses, but it is limited.

 

It may not be cheap. But hope that they would help for your purpose. They have around 10+ courses in Psychology, though it is not a degree in psychology.

Thanks a lot.

But it is really a bit expensive...

 

Re: Re: Re: Online Credits??

The simple answer is yes. For particulars you might want to do a site search.

I mentioned two schools but other schools offering courses at a reasonable price have been discussed here.

Excelsior College's DistanceLearn database is an excellent starting point for finding what you seek. That database shows you which RA schools offer the courses you want and gives you links to the schools for more specific information like costs. I just checked the Excelsior website and it seems to be having some problems right now.

 

I'm thinking you mean Thomas Edison State College, and if that's the case then yes, it is ok. TESC is accredited by the middle states assoc. of colleges and schools, and it was created by the state of New Jersey, a fact that was important to me when I was looking for a distance program.
Classes are reasonable in price, at least for me as an NJ resident.

 

Can I take courses with credits instead of applying for a degree?

 

Re: Re: Re: Re: Online Credits??

But is EC DistanceLearn available for international students?

 

Try BYU

I'm doing my last three hours with BYU (to transfer to OU). Grad or undergrad, thier university DL is less than $120 per hour. You don't need to enroll in the college, just enroll online in the courses. No transcripts or essays, just a credit card.

U of Missouri DL also does business this way, but I think they cost a bit more, not sure, its been several years since I wennt through them for some credit.

 

Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Online Credits??

DistanceLearn is a database of schools offering courses by distance learning and is accessible to anyone. I'd give you a link but the Excelsior website is acting abnormally today.

 

Re: Try BYU

BYU is..

 

Re: Re: Try BYU

With UK University accept BYU credits transfer?
I would like to transfer those credits to Derby University elearning BSc Psychology.

Thanks.

 

I paid 200$ US for the 3 credit course, plus a 20$ enrollment fee. Dont quote me on that though.

 

Re: Re: Re: Try BYU

Heres what Derby has to say about accepting credits:

Here at the University of Derby we have over 4,000 part time students and have considerable experience of assessing students in respect of exemptions for study they have taken elsewhere or knowledge they have gained through work or life experience.
You are strongly advised to apply for consideration of exemptions at the same time as you make an application to join a program, and information on how to apply can be found here:
http://www.derby.ac.uk/4_student/gls/apl/index.html

So you might want to contact them to find out.

Also note that this is a 6-year degree!!!

My daughter is taking a B&M BSc in Pschology at York and they did not accept any prior credits -- but they did let her into the program based on her maturity. So far her toughest class is statistics.

 

Re: Re: Re: Re: Try BYU

It is a 3-year degree by distance learning (but full-time effort).

Thanks for your info!
