WASHINGTON D.C. - StraighterLine (www.straighterline.com), a new online education solution that provides students a high quality, better supported, and lower cost way to obtain college credits through regionally accredited colleges and universities, has announced it will offer a new "subscription style" model for course sales. The "StraighterLine for $99" program allows students to access all StraighterLine courses for only $99 per month, with no start-up costs and no minimum or maximum time limit for course completion. Students can select any one StraighterLine course at a time. Upon completing a course, students may begin a new course with no additional costs.
"StraighterLine for $99" differs from the company's regular pricing of $399 per course, each of which must be completed within six months. The chief advantage of "StraighterLine for $99" over the normal cost is that for students who want to finish just one course in three months or less, the "subscription style" model can save them $100 or more from an already very affordable price for an online college course.
StraighterLine offers four entry-level curriculum courses where credit can be awarded: College Algebra, English Composition, Economics I and Accounting I. More courses are planned for the future. Courses completed through the StraighterLine program can be awarded college credit by regionally accredited partner colleges. Student-earned credits may also be transferred to non-partner colleges that recognize the StraighterLine's partner's courses as equivalent programs.
Additional information on the StraighterLine program can be found at www.straighterline.com or by visiting the StraighterLine blog at www.mmimarketing.com/blog/?author=straighterline.
