I've been taking a calculus 2 course at a brick and mortar university, but it looks like I've blown it after failing the first few tests. I've been interested in taking a self paced online calculus 2 course (so i can start at the beginning of the semester and hopefully finish before January) Here's my research: University of Arkansas - $399 LSU - $487.00 - self paced Portland State University - Oregon - $562 - 8 weeks minimum completion - 4 hour quarterly Central Texas College - $200 - must wait until semester starts Ohio University - $564.00 - correspondence Kansas State - $984 Pennsylvania State University - $740.00 Indiana University - $788.24 SUNY Empire State College - $828 Thomas Edison State College - $956.00 - 12-week semester University of Alaska Fairbanks - $660.00 - 2 lessons per week, how many lessons? University of Arizona - $1632.00 university of colorado at colorado springs - $899.00 Kansas State - $851.70 - self paced University of Kentucky - $1228.00 University of Minnesota - $1500 University of Missouri - $1228 University of Phoenix Online - ~$1000 University of Oklahoma - $1025.75 - self paced University of North Dakota - $942.00 University of Tenessee - $836.00 - self paced University of Utah - $830.00 - self paced University of Wisconsin - $1300.00 univeristy of Wyoming Outreach School - ~$560 - correspondance Distance Calculus @ Shorter University - $1300 Rio Salado College - $645 Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University - $834.00 I'm in Texas, so it looks like LSU and University of Arkansas are my best options if I want to transfer courses and make it cheap. Does anyone have experience with taking independent study courses at LSU or University of Arkansas? Were they quality courses?
I am taking Calc III with LSU right now. TBH, if you are having that much trouble in a B&M course, taking it via independent study probably isn't a good idea. LSU courses are fairly tough and you need to put time into them.
I have a full time job and I believe that makes self-paced a good option. gettingthere has some other excellent options for online calculus: Texas A&M - $602 for four semester hours credit Kansas University - $941.70 Oakton Community College - $455 + registration fees - must start course at beginning of a semester University of Illinois - semester 3 semester hour class - $1,062 Utah State University - 1126.94
Another option (not for me) would be studying hard and doing the credit by examination at ohio state: MATH 163B HS 8/96
