Want to earn college credit without having to deal with the whole “college” part?
- 00:07
Hey, we don’t blame you.
- 00:08
Those dorms can develop some pretty pungent odors. [Picture of a messy dorm]
- 00:11
Well, get ready for some good news.

Shmoops courses like all things Shmoop are informative, comprehensive, engaging and fun.
- 00:21
You’ll still have to work your buns off, of course, but you can do all your bun-working [Man whips a bun running on a treadmill]

online.
- 00:25
After absorbing all the material in a given course, all you need to do is take the unit
- 00:29
tests and final exam, score a 70% cumulative grade, and you’re golden.
- 00:34
Which should be a breeze, since 100% of everything you need to know will be swimming around in [Guys head opens and random things are flying round]
- 00:39
that over-sized brain of yours.
- 00:41
But even if you do pull a Jeremy and score poorly on a test or final exam, you’ll have
- 00:45
one chance to retake it and improve on your prior result.
- 00:48
Sorry to drag you into this, Jeremy. [Guy crying in the shower]
- 00:50
Once you’ve passed the course, with just a few clicks you can transfer your Shmoop
- 00:53
credit to over 2,000 college and universities that consider ACE CREDIT recommendations.
- 00:59
If your school of choice happens to be one of those 2,000…and trust us, 2,000 is a
- 01:04
lot—we tried counting on our fingers and failed miserably… [Students hold their hands up and look confused]
- 01:06
…and your credit is accepted, then you’ll already be on your way to accumulating the
- 01:10
college credit you’ll eventually need in order to graduate. [Man in a Mario game]
- 01:13
Other sites might offer a similar service, but they pale in comparison to what Shmoop
- 01:17
is able to offer.
- 01:19
With Shmoop, you’ve got unlimited use of ACE CREDIT recommended courses, so you’re
- 01:23
free to work on as many courses at one time as you can handle. [Man sat in front of four computer screens]
- 01:26
The courses are self-paced and remote, which means you can go at your own speed, and access
- 01:30
your stuff from your own bedroom or from an internet café in Singapore. [Woman using a laptop in bed]
- 01:34
Like Shakira says, “Whenever… wherever.” [Shakira dancing]
- 01:37
It can take anywhere from a week to three months to work your way through a course,
- 01:41
depending on how motivated you are and how effectively you’re able to stay off Facebook. [Guy using Facebook on his phone]
- 01:45
Our courses are less than half the cost of most college credit-eligible online courses…
- 01:50
only $87.68 per month for access to every single course … [Light beams appearing from the Shmoop website]
- 01:54
…so you’ll be able to deposit your vast savings into your all-important socks-and-underwear [Guy holding a basket full of socks]
- 01:59
fund.
- 02:00
Once you've completed a course and earned a 70% or higher cumulative grade…
- 02:03
…you can simply head over to the ACE CREDIT Registry and Transcript System to request
- 02:08
a transcript and earn college credit.
- 02:10
Or, if your employer is taking care of that part for you, just work directly with them [Man walks into an office]
- 02:14
to git ‘er done.
- 02:15
And, of course, our material won’t put you to sleep like some of those other sites. [Guy asleep in front of a computer]
- 02:19
We’re looking at you, Snoozefest University-dot-com.
- 02:22
So, yeah.
- 02:23
Check out Shmoop courses and start earning yourselves some college credit ASAP. [Guy walking on the graduation stage]
- 02:27
Don’t forget that the early bird catches the worm.
- 02:30
Which…might not be that encouraging if you’re not partial to the taste of worm, but…you [Bird picks up a worm from the ground]
- 02:35
catch our drift.
