Note: The online course software does not support Netscape 6.x or any browsers not listed above (such as Safari and Opera) or any beta or public preview versions of any browser or operating system. We are in the process of beta testing Netscape 7.x and have found very few problems when using Netscape 7.x in conjunction with the online course software. However, we are not officially supporting Netscape 7.x until all problems encountered have been resolved. If you wish to use Netscape 7.x, please be advised that you may encounter problems for which we are unable to provide a solution. Do NOT rely on using the computers on the Sullivan University campus. These computers do NOT have soundcards or other necessary software that may be needed for your course!

The cost of the Internet Connection, books and materials, and all course software is the student’s responsibility and is not included with the cost of the class.
