    Hi.i am new to this forum and i've been looking around to get the information i need but after a whole day of searching and reading couldn't find sufficient informations so i'm wondering if someone can help me out.

    I am currently attending a university majoring in BS in Economics and i just need one more economics electives to graduate. due to personal reasons i need to get this done this summer and my university is not offering and upper level classes this summer.

    and since i'm unable to relocate just for this class, i'm trying to find a distance learning option. does anyone know of any 4-yr universities in U.S. that offer upper level economic classes where i can take just individual courses?
    i need classes such as 'Experimental economics', 'law and economics', 'economics of labor', 'economics resource scarcity', 'economics of decision', 'games and economics behavior', etc

    and how do you know if the school if offering individual classes? i've found couple of universities that offers degrees in economics but did not mention anything about being able to take individual classes.

    if someone could help me out i would really appreciate it. Thank you so much

    Hi try the independent study courses at LSU, you may can use them:

    Also Dordt College has a listing of colleges that offer other correspondence type courses:

    The UNC public university system, thats in my home state offers independent study courses:

    Welcome!

    Always happy to help out another econ student.

    How about this: SS450 Globalization and market economy at APU? http://www.apus.edu/schedule/bycourse-step4.htm?courseid=107187&catid=25

    It's late summer (8/4 to 9/28) but it looks like a useful class. I just registered for APU grad-level class and there was no fee. Took 15 minutes. You will have to fax or mail them your transcript, I think, for undergrad admittance. It is also one of the cheapest universities.
