    Hi Everybody,

    I am asking for your help. I am trying to compile a list of RA/NA schools that charge a flat fee for a block or chunk of units. I am rushing out the door, however, Western Governors comes to mind, along with some of the Big three.

    I hope I am explaining this correctly. CA State schools charge a certain fee "Up to 12 units". So, for example, the student pays the same whether he/she takes 6 units or 12 units. I know there are for profit schools that charge a flat fee for entire degrees as well, I just can't think of them off hand.

    Thanks in advance!

    I turned down Saybrook because they charge a flat fee regardless if you take one class or many. I asked them if that was open to negotiation. They did not like that (everything is open for negotiation in the business world :cool: ).

    I think Union Institute and Fielding are also like that.

    This is why I chose Capella though I've heard that other Capella schools charge a flat fee. The Human Services and Psychology schools don't.

    Andrew Jackson University has a similar payment arrangement.

    Thanks for the info Doc! Good to hear from ya. If you can think of anymore, please speak up.

    This may sound like a lot to ask for, but if you have a minute, could you post the direct links showing the flat fee structures to these schools? If you don't have time, I am just happy for the names. I can dig up the links later. Beggars can't be chosers.

    Thanks Dr. BB

    I'm not sure if this is what you're looking for... but I took the NYU language proficiency exam and you pay one fee to try for 12 credits or another fee to try for 16...
