WHAT RESOURCES ARE AVAILABLE TO HELP ME DEVELOP A FINANCIAL PLAN TO PAY FOR MY
EDUCATION?

Once you’ve chosen your degree program and decided whether you will attend
online or at a local campus, you can determine how much you’ll invest in your
education and how you will pay for it. We can walk you step-by-step through the
process with the tuition and expenses estimating tool, Financial Plan and Net
Price Calculator. Time is money. See if you can save both.

With the financial planning tool you can:

 * Determine your estimated tuition and expenses based on your degree program
   and location.
 * Review your financial plan to see if you need to make adjustments.

Having information about your taxes, savings and any prior college credits
available will help with this process. The more specific the information you
provide, the more accurate your estimate will be.

Learn about tuition and fees

Courses are 100% online learning experiences – all courses, including any
provided materials; tools, worksheets, and videos are in English. Each course is
designed to take approximately 30 hours to complete. Courses are not faculty-led

lives, allowing you to learn when and where you want.

Each course contains:

 * Four to five modules; each module covers multiple topics and one skill.
 * Post-module assessments to test your learning – no limit on how many times
   you can test yourself.
 * Publicly available curated resources.

days) from the date of purchase.

When you have achieved a score of 85% or higher in each module’s assessment
within 365 days from purchase, a Certificate of Completion will be issued for
course completion.


DO I GET UNIVERSITY OR COLLEGE CREDITS BY TAKING A COURSE?
