## About
2015-10-03 22:33:25 +03:00
2015-10-04 03:49:49 +03:00
This is a **solid path** for you that want to graduate in a Computer Science course in your own time, **for free** , with courses from the **best universities** of the World.
2015-10-04 03:11:12 +03:00
2015-10-04 03:08:40 +03:00
Here we will < strike > try to</ strike > choose a maximum of **3** courses for each category. Futurely, more categories and/or courses can be added to this list or in a more advanced list.
2015-10-03 22:33:25 +03:00
Initially, we will also give preference for MOOC (Massive Open Online Course) type of courses because those courses were created with our style of learning in mind.

2015-10-04 03:56:05 +03:00
Making a [public commitment ](http://renewablewealth.com/articles/the-power-of-a-public-commitment/ ), we have much more chances to **succeed** in our graduation, know better our fellows and share the things that we have done.
2015-10-04 03:49:49 +03:00
2015-10-04 03:56:05 +03:00
For those reasons we are using that strategy.
