Mtn top you have probably completed the ISU program at this point since it is now 2014. Can you offer any advice because like you when you were starting this process you had lots of detailed questions. One of the most important is that so many people have bought study guides but I can never seem to find them on Amazon or ebay as suggested. Was this program a positive experience and do you have any beware tips while in the program? Thanks

I know that this topic has been discussed before but I am looking for current posters who are just starting or who may have recently graduated from this program. I am now looking into the ISU program and have heard mixed reviews mostly related to the association of The College Network. From what I have read it seems you purchase materials from them, study guides or modules in order to pass the exams necessary to be enrolled in the ISU program. Is there another way for you to prepare for these test without spending such an extreme amount of money for four classes. Does ISU offer any exam preparation materials? I also read that some people purchased old material from ebay or amazon will these be sufficient to pass the exams? My personal thoughts are that the school should directly provide the resources but I will let you know later because I plan to call them. I would also like to know if anyone has used them and still have the resources would they be willing to sell the materials they used (to me of course) to others since they no longer need them. Honestly, this is my plan "B" trying to see if I have gotten into a traditional program at the end of the month. Oh yea, about how much time did it take to complete the program, I know that some people will already have prerequisites and others will not so I would like to hear from both sides.
