Pretty difficult in the beginning but long as you stay focused you can retain a lot.

College Algebra

by Jessica K. on September 16, 2018

Best way to take a class during a busy summer. Really enjoyed my first Sophia experience! Wish I had known about this earlier in my college career!!!

Human Biology

by Synkeithia H. on September 15, 2018

I enjoyed this course. However there were some typos in some of the lessons.

Art History I

by Stacey B. on September 14, 2018

Needed the course to transfer in. Art History subject is okay. Layout of course with Sophia is good, I like how they have tutorials available. I actually learned some interesting things for sure. Received an A.

Approaches to Studying Religions

by Stacey B. on September 12, 2018

Interesting class, required for program. Saved a ton of money doing it on Sophia as opposed to University. I used my phone to complete the challenges when I had a minute--made it convenient and quick to get through.
