A sophomore that I mentor asked me about online classes, and I didn't know how to answer. This student wants to re-take chemistry through the online general chemistry courses offered by Oregon State University. From what I can gather, this is an accredited four-year institution and this course is designed for students aiming towards health careers. However, I'm fairly certain that adcoms would know this is an online course even if it isn't indicated, because our home institution is nowhere near Oregon and the transcript sent would indicate that.
Should I recommend this student to retake chemistry this way? Would it look bad to re-take a prerequisite course online even if from a four-year institution?
