It's like Netflix for education: U North Dakota considers subscription tuition model - Sydney Mook, Grand Forks Herald

UND wants to add a flat-rate subscription option to its tuition model. Think of it as Netflix or Hulu – popular television subscription services – but for a UND education. Students could pay a flat rate and take as many (or as few) online courses as preferred, so long as they aren’t considered a full-time, degree-seeking student. “You enroll, you have a subscription and during that subscription, you can binge watch,” said Jeff Holm, vice provost for online education and strategic planning at UND.
