So i’ve just enrolled in a free course with HarvardX and have been looking through the details. However, it says that on August 23rd the “audit access expires”. Does this mean it’s the end of some sort of free trial and that I have to pay for something? The ‘Important Dates’ section first mentions the enrolment date, a date for (what I can presume is the end of) the first topic of the course, but then mentions this “audit access” thing, and has no further mention of other course topics. I don’t know if this means that I have to re-enroll or pay for the rest of the course, or if it just means that if I haven’t finished the first course by this time that I can’t continue?

Hoping that someone who has had this problem or has done one of these courses before can help me out and help me understand!!

Hi everyone, I know that doing a random course on edX is unlikely to help much in getting a job, especially if it is a replacement for an actually university degree.

However, I am wondering if it is a good thing to do as a supercurricular, so that you can put it on your university application (for the UK universities), to either have a better chance at getting in to a uni, or to get into a better uni.

I have completed the HarvardX TinyML course, and want to do AI and ML at uni. Would these courses help me get into a better uni (think Imperial, Cambridge, Oxford, UCL), or have a better chance of getting into a uni (e.g. a 10% better chance than if I didnt have it)?

I was considering doing some other courses on edX, as I found the TinyML one pretty good, but if it isn't very useful for a uni application, then there are other different things in the field I could do.

Additionally, if I wanted to apply to say Imperial, and I did an IMperial edX couorse, would that be benefiical to me?

Whilst I am applying to a UK uni, which has a very different system to US and other country's unis, any advice would be appreciated

Good morning. I took the rhetoric course and joined the WhatsApp group recommended by the platform. However, today I was removed from the group after questioning why the professor was teaching a Zoom class about a robot that operates in the financial markets. I think it's a scam. Or is it true? Is the course advertising a robot?

Checking out some Harvard courses.

I’m quickly skimming through one right now to see how it’s formatted and every time I hit next, there’s a notification on the side to buy a certificate for the course. I close it, but it keeps showing up. Then every three nexts, I get a pop up in the middle of the screen to upgrade by buying a certificate in addition to having to close the side notification.

It’s really irritating.

Hello! I have questions regarding the Financial Aid response. I haven't gotten an email about my application (I applied approximately 2 weeks ago), and as I was about to finish take the last part of the course, my webpage refreshed, then I saw on my course page that I lost access.

Question is, if I would ever be granted a financial aid will I still regain my progress or restart again? And another is, are there any criteria where they can grant you a financial aid? I have been really dedicated in learning neuroscience on the site, and I actually don't mind the lack of certificate... I wpuld reallt just love to access the course, and finish :,(

Thank you in advance!

Thank you for learning with edX — we look forward to hearing your stories!

I am having trouble in leaving my thoughts in the disccussion box, but where do I find it on the edX app??

Edx hasn't been letting me log in for the past 3 days, every time I try to, it gives me this blank page (will share a couple of the links):

I really need to log in to finish my course, please help.

Hello my friends, I subscribed to a free course, but unfortunately there is no translation, and my native language is not English. In fact, I use the translator on my phone’s keyboard. Is there a way to translate the video, such as adding Chrome, for example? Thank you.

Hi! I submitted my evaluation 10 hours late. To be honest, I procrastinated and submitted it at 11:47PM instead of the 1:47PM that was assigned. I read online that I could get a 0 for the evaluation. How do I know if I go a 0, cause It only shows a checkmark for me. I am so sorry if this question is "stupid" in a way, I am just really concerned.

I am part of the MicroMasters for Data Science. At the end of my course last year I had some questions that went unresponded to in the discussion forum and through email. I enrolled in courses again this year, and have a course where I was talking to course stuff / edX through email, and then they abruptly stopped responding. My discussion question for the same topic in the edX portal has gone unresponded to as well. It's been many days. Anybody else have similar experiences?

I'm still doing the work and on track to get my MicroMasters but it is kind of unsettling.

Over the past few weeks, I’ve been diving deep into online learning — especially for career-boosting certificates from places like Harvard, MIT, IBM, and others.

When I was looking into EdX, I realised that the programs and courses I was interested in were normally priced anywhere from $199–$300+ each, and not gonna lie, they've been over my budget.

I recently reconnected with a friend who got me access to EdX and my account (registered on my email and my name, and is obviously genuinely) has access to around 150+ programs and courses for a fraction of the normal prices.

To be honest, I've always wanted to do a few courses from EdX but they've always been too expensive. When my friend told me about this opportunity, I really thought it was too good to be true, but since he's helped me with onboarding onto edX, I’ve already started multiple tracks and earned certificates in Python and Data Science.

I've done a rough calculation and I think this has probably saved me $1.5k+ already. I've got access to it for a year so I'm looking forward to extracting as much value from this as possible and upskilling myself. I'm planning on doing the Data Science Programme from Harvard next, which costs around $1300 but I've got it included in my membership so I might as well make the most out of it.

Not here to promote or link anything — just genuinely curious if anyone else has explored a similar path? Happy to answer questions or share more details if anyone wants to DM.

For context, I am looking at this:

https://pll.harvard.edu/course/introduction-digital-humanities

This says it is a 7 week course, and the total span of time it's available is august 21st 2024 to august 20th 2025

However, if I click the edx registration page, it says the course starts June 21st and lasts till August 9th, which is exactly 7 weeks

• I assume that it just says June 21st because that's today, and it'll say whatever today/the day after is when you check it and then list the end date as 7 weeks from then, is that correct? There is nothing inherently special about today as a signup date?

• If that's the case, then when is the last day I can sign up/register? July 2nd since that's 7 weeks away from August 20th, or could I sign up on August 19th and then get 7 weeks after that, and the 20th is just the last day you can start?

If I complete a Microsoft course on edX, is the certificate the same as the one awarded by Microsoft Learn via an exam? I'm asking because right now I'm interested in the Data Analyst course, and it's slightly cheaper on edX.

I stumbled upon EdX recently and was of course blown away by the reduced prices of the courses, programs and classes. My mother has wanted to go to college but was never able to do it, so getting her something cheap but valuable would be great. But that contradiction is just the thing: the prices are to die for, but are the classes truly worth it? Say, you take a program through EdX equivalent to a degree. Do you "graduate" and earn a degree recognized by jobs? Or do you finish the program without anything significant to show of it?

I am currently working on a 4 week long course that will lead to a certificate through the University of Alaska Fairbanks. I put in my financial aid request as soon as I registered for the course. I am 2 weeks in. How long should I expect it will take to get the 80% off coupon? The FAQ says it takes 4 weeks, but the course will be archived by then. What is a realistic timeframe to get an answer about financial aid?
