    Hi friends.
    I search for single online courses that I can take and that do not have proctored final exams - i.e. everything must be online.
    Do such courses exist (on the undergraduate, upper-level)?
    Thanks for your help!

    Thanks, Brandon,

    but that's just National University at this time (since there was no further information about Keiser College, unfortunately).

    Any more universities that offer single courses totally online?

    Cheers,
    T.

    Touro International offers single courses. I am planning to take from there for my MBA pre-reqs.

    Empire State College allows you to take courses as a non-matriculated student, amd most of their courses don't have proctored exams. http://www.esc.edu/cdl

    Excelsior has a gigantic searchable database of DL courses and the schools that offer them, but I don't know if you have to be an Excelsior student to use it.

    Also, I believe that Brigham Young U also has a gigantic list or database of DL courses (in addition to those it offers itself) and you may also want to check U-Ohio Athens.

    Fort Hays State University. Many, many undergrad courses and you can be a transient student without much difficulty. The cost is $130 per credit hour for undergrad right now. I have done 4 grad courses with them to date, and no proctored material in them. The school is very distance learning driven and the courses have been very good.

    That seems to be a real good hint. Thanks to you (and all the other respondents as well).
    The problem with the FHSU syllabi is: where can I find out whether one course is upper or lower level?
    Thanks again,
    t.

    Insofar as we have a standard, that or similar is the standard.

    Of course, the upper level courses from Durchschnitt Hochschule may not transfer as such to Todschick Hochschule or Euber Todschick Hochschule. And yes, I know that is nonsense but you probably understand. :)

    It's very easy. 100 level courses are freshman, 200 are sophmore, 300 are junior, 400 are senior, 500/600/700 are undergrad or grad (depending on your needs, the tuition you want to spend, and the amount of effort you want to put in), while 800 level are strictly graduate level.

    He he, you mean the Übertodschickhochschule (in German, we have the tendency to build hyper-long words out of different single ones).


    Oh, yes, it is really easy - though a little bit strange for European standard, too, but admittedly easy - once you've heard it...

    Thanks for that also
    ;)

    Cheers,

    As this page indicates, it's not always so simple. And these schools are part of the same university (SUNY).
