Please verify course transferability with any institution you plan to attend. University Transfer provides a resource to review our transfer agreements.

Cost

Plus One Virtual is tuition free for 30 credit hours of the total 31 earned college hours – that’s a year of college for just over $100 in tuition! Students are responsible for all course fees at TCC’s state-mandated rate of only $29.45/credit hour and no added online fees are charged. The program uses no-cost textbooks for nine of the ten courses. You only purchase a low-cost access fee for math.

Virtual Testing

For virtual students, some courses may require a proctored exam. A proctored exam uses an authorized, neutral, party to ensure the identity of the test taker and the integrity of the test-taking environment. We have multiple ways for our virtual students to complete proctored exams. Almost all virtual courses that use proctored exams integrate the exam right into Blackboard with Respondus, along with all of your other course assignments. If a course does not use Blackboard for it's exams there multiple options for test proctoring to choose form.
