All Distance Calculus courses are offered through Roger Williams University in Providence, Rhode Island, a regionally accredited university. There are so many online calculus courses that give the appearance of offering "transferrable credit" or "certificates". Investigate these offerings very carefully as usually there is a catch: the credits are only transferable to select schools, or only via examination (ACE) (which is not universally recognized), or similar restrictions. You don't want to have to take Calculus again!

When you take a Distance Calculus course, you are taking a real course from Roger Williams University, a major university in Rhode Island. Completion of these courses earns real academic transcript with real, transferable academic credits from an accredited university.

Courses Completed: Multivariable Calculus

Fantastic and unique course, particularly good for visual/spatial thinkers. The course forces you to develop a real conceptual understanding of the math concepts, as opposed to just teaching math formulas like other courses tend to do.

There is a steep learning curve early on to get used to the software and the kind of course this is.

Ultimately, I feel like what I learned will allow me to actually use the math and build upon it in the future. If you care about learning, rather than just passing a requirement, this is a great course for you.

Fantastic courses! I barely made it through Cal 1, and halfway through Cal 2 I found this program. I took Cal 2 and then Multivariable and I just loved it! SOOOOOOO much better than a classroom+textbook class. I highly recommend!

After two failed attempts at my university, this course helped me understand Calculus. The live maths tool along with Dr. Curtis were especially helpful, allowing me to visualize concepts and expand my understanding. The explanations were clear, the examples practical, and I could learn at my own pace, which built my confidence. Thank you.
