World Univ & Sch is seeking 100-500 online matriculating undergraduate students beginning this September 1, 2018 for accrediting free-to-students' Bachelor degrees - in English. Classes, for planning purposes, will meet online in something like Google group video Hangouts, with something like Stanford graduate students working/teaching as graduate student instructors to the CC-4 MIT OCW / Yale OYC faculty in video - conceptually.

For students, World Univ & Sch would also seek to collaborate with UC Berkeley and re some of the 89,000 students who applied to UC Berkeley but didn't get in - https://twitter.com/UCBerkeley/status/1017096131602501634 - but are still interested in attending a highest achieving university, now online.

For students, World Univ & Sch would also further seek to collaborate, for example, with the Stanford University, San Francisco Unified School District Partnership - stanfordsfusd.org -of which Laura Wentworth (https://twitter.com/laurawent), is its Director (and whom I know from the Stanford Graduate School of Education).
