- boromi 6y agoWhat is the justification and are people accepting this increase
- bachmeier 6y agoBecause remote classes have higher costs. It's always been that way.
- michaelt 6y agoThat’s why Khan Academy et al are so expensive, huh?
- tasogare 6y agoKhan Academy is not an university. In my country, universities that offer remote degrees (well before covid) all charges additional fees for it. It’s usually not much (something like 200€ on top of the ~500€ typical fee), but some charge per module so it can add up quickly. A few have a dedicated remote learning center, with is own workers.

- code4tee 6y agoUniversities are starting to sound like car salesman. Look at this great deal! Now we’ll just add on the winterization fee, rust prevention package, delivery fee, admin fee, admin recovery fee, tag fee, boat payment fee, tire rotation fee, coolant flush and closing costs and we’ll get you on the road in a jiffy!
