Who can enter
Open to everyone worldwide — free to audit on Coursera
What it costs
Free to audit: lectures and readings cost nothing. Graded assignments and the shareable certificate are paid (Coursera charges roughly $49-79 for this course, or it is included in a Coursera Plus subscription). Coursera financial aid covers most of that if granted — recent reports say it now caps at around 90%, so expect a small remainder rather than nothing. Apply on the course page and allow about two weeks.
When it closes
We could not confirm this year's date against the organiser's own page, so we are not showing a countdown for it. Last published: Self-paced on Coursera — free to audit any time.
