I need to take physics 1 again because the first time i took it (7 years ago) I got a C-. I was accepted to a couple of schools so I will matriculate next fall.

I won't be able to take it this course this coming spring semester unless it is online due to availability of the course at local schools and work.

Does anyone know of any legitimate place that offers 4 credit physics 1 online course??

Eastern Oregon University offers an online physics course with a lab component. Although they are term based so if you are looking for 4 semester credits it may not work for you. Just as a heads up the class is very heavy on homework with long and sometimes difficult lab write-ups, proctored exams and requires a significant amount of effort. Some people think online classes are easier, this is not one of them,

As long as it is 4 credits and covers the scope of the material in physics 1, should it matter? I don't care about the difficulty because this stuff HAS to get done.

The class is 4 term credits which is equal to 2.7 semester credits. You would most likely have to take two terms from EOU to get over the required 4 semester credits. Hope that helps.

ah i see. thanks



Anyone else have any suggestions?
 
I recently had this problem as well. I ended up taking physics 1 and 2 at cconline (I'm in CA). The classes were a lot of work but I learned a lot. Most schools have no problem with it. Congrats on your acceptance.
 
Thank you guys for the help!

I have actually just found a pretty cheap one:

It is a legit course and will cost me about 900 including lab kit and all other stuff(because I am NYS resident though).

The university of new england one is pretty attractive because you complete it on your own time
