    Does anyone have first hand experience with this? One of my former MA students/BB has been convicted of a felony, and will be serving a long stretch. He has accepted this, and acknowledges he must pay the price now.

    Please advise,

    Thanks,

    Abner, the most important point is to FIRST get permission from the education officer/warden designee before enrolling! Inmates have a tough enough time without starting off on the wrong side of the officials.

    Nations generally knows what materials are acceptable in prisons, and may already have a proctor set up in that facility. If not, the education officer or chaplain will usually proctor exams.

    Some facilities now have filtered email, but not many and it's not cheap, so correspondence is generally paper based. Friends and relatives can act as intermediaries for inmates if authorized by the inmate.

    Here is the inmate program link: NationsUniversity - Tuition-free Online Christian Education - Prison Division

    Hope this helps,
