Need online math credit

tootsie2184 · Jan 30, 2011

I took all my science classes through CCConline.org . It is through Colorado community colleges. I chose Colorado Northwestern Community College and they offer two sessions per semester. Its awesome! I got B's in all of my sciences (even though I try so hard for the damn A, I never seem to get it lol) good luck!

What does it mean to have a course transcribed?

If you are earning college credit through nontraditional methods (testing, unaccredited courses, life experience, etc.), you will need to have these unconventional credits "transcribed" by a regionally accredited college or university. In other words, once these nontraditional credits end up on an accredited transcript, they have been "transcribed."

For example, you can take the ALEKS statistics course online and at your own pace, but it will not be worth any college credit unless you have it "transcribed" on an ACE transcript. Once your ALEKS statistics course is officially "transcribed," it is worth three semester hours worth of college level math.

How do they test? Is it an online test or do you have to find a proctor? I'm looking to finish up but need online classes only.

ALEKS is completely nonproctored and you take your tests/assessments at home on your computer. Once you score 70 percent on an assessment, you can submit the score to ACE and request to have it transcripted for 3 semesters of college credit.

ALEKS offers ACE-approved courses in Beginning Algebra, Intermediate Algebra, College Algebra, Precalculus, Trigonometry, Intro to Statistics, Business Statistics, and Statistics for the Behavioral Sciences.

There are more than five options to obtaining quick college credit in college-level math:
1. Straighterline.com: they offer self-paced courses that can be completed in a week if you are really strong at math. Their offerings include College Algebra, Statistics, Precalculus, and General Calculus. You will need to have the course transcribed at a partner college in order to receive 3 semester hours worth of college credit for the class. Fort Hays State University charges a $30 application fee for transcribing the class onto an official transcript.
2. ALEKS.com: for $20 per month, you can enroll in their intermediate algebra course. As soon as you score 70% or greater on one of their assessments, you can have the course transcribed on an ACE transcript that qualifies for 3 semester hours worth of college credit in mathematics. ALEKS also offers college algebra, statistics, and other interesting offerings that qualify for ACE-approved college credit upon completion.
3. CLEP exams: for about $80, you can test out of college-level math and receive 3 semester hours worth of college credit that is accepted at thousands of colleges and universities.
4. CALCampus: they offer several accredited, self-paced college-level math courses.
5. Independent Study in Idaho: they offer online and print-based college-level math courses that are reasonably-priced at about $100 per credit.
If anyone is interested in cheap college credits to satisfy a degree requirement, I can surely offer advice. In fact, I am looking to complete as many cheap college courses as possible without setting foot in another classroom due to time constraints.

anyone know if Indiana state accepts classes from straighterline.com ?

I'm taking APII at Clovis right now and we do have to have a proctor for the final. So I'm not sure if the no proctor thing is something they just offer once in a while or if something has changed. I thought it was going to be totally online too and that's not the case. I'm also taking Medical Terminology and we also have to have a proctor for the final.

Can you tell me how do you know if you got 70% on aleks math? It doesn't tell me anything except to continue with my pie and keeps going. No percentage is ever given.

Any info you have would be appreciated! Thank you!
