There is a monthly membership cost of $99 that is billed to each student who is enrolled in a StraighterLine course. Monthly membership is re-billed on the same day of the month as original purchase. Membership fees are charged to the original form of payment used at checkout. A membership is required in order to access StraighterLine courses.
You can add an unlimited number of courses and your membership fee stays the same.
Also, most SL courses include a free e-textbook, so that’s an additional savings for our students.
Members are able to receive academic tutoring for their courses at no extra charge. On-demand tutoring provides academic support whenever you need it. Every StraighterLine membership includes 10 hours of tutoring at no additional cost, FREE. It’s a great resource to assist you through the online courses.
Unlike a Gym Membership, our membership can be cancelled at any time, and renewed when you are ready. There is no admission requirements or application fees, so you are always able to restart right away and not lose any work.
How much can I save?
StraighterLine offers guaranteed credit pathways to accredited degree programs and our students can save up to 60% on the total cost of a degree. At StraighterLine with most courses costing just $59, with an e-textbooks included + our $99 monthly membership and free tutoring, students can save LITERALLY tens thousands of dollars off the cost of their degree.
How much you can specifically save depends on how much your school costs and how many StraighterLine courses you can take and transfer in for credit.
Can my students apply their financial aid or GI bill benefits?
No, StraighterLine doesn’t offer financial aid. However, StraighterLine is often used when students reach their financial caps or when they need to fill a general education gap quickly and affordably.
StraighterLine courses are self-paced, which means you can start immediately and work at your own pace. You can take as much-- or as little--time as you need to get through the material. There is no deadline to finish our assignments or courses since we do not operate in semesters like a traditional college or university. You take quizzes and exams when you are ready, not before.
