Time to wave the flag a bit... http://www.cnn.com/2002/EDUCATION/10/04/canada.college.ap/index.html My D/L courses from Athabasca are about $300 USD/3 CR. That includes all course texts and materials. Pretty cheap considering the price of a reference can be +100! Cheers...R
That's the fire sale price for those of us who live in the Republic of Alberta (there I go dreaming again). If you live well south of Medicine Hat, and drink soda, not pop, you’ll have to shell-out ~ $450 USD/3 CR. Cheers…Randy (long live king Ralph!)
My wife will be paying $1080 Canadian per 3 credit graduate course at Athabasca (currently about $677 US). That's a very reasonable price, but there are some US schools offering courses for less than this, even considering that Athabasca includes all course materials. A Canadian citizen living in Canada would only pay $875 Canadian (about $549 US) for the same course though, and that's pretty tough to beat (though I think that Fort Hays State is probably pretty close to that when course materials are considered). There's no question that most of Athabasca's offerings are a very good value. Their MSc IS and MBA programs are relatively pricey though, compared to both the rest of Athabasca's offerings and similar DL offerings from many other schools.
