What happens after you hit send
Somebody reads the actual course. Not a form, not a bot: a person who holds a degree in your subject opens the syllabus, the rubrics and your gradebook, and works out where you really are. That takes about two hours and it's free whether or not you go ahead.
What comes back is a plain list. Everything still due between now and the end of term, what each item is worth, when it's due, and the earlier date we'd aim for instead. You'll see it before anything gets written, and you can cross things off it.
- Everything left in the course, with the weight the syllabus gives it
- Our working date for each item, set ahead of the real deadline
- The rubric that'll be used, read before the prompt is even started
- Which items we're taking and which are staying with you, in writing
- The weeks where two big things collide, flagged while you can still move them
The part where we say no
We turn down more courses than we take, and it's usually for one of two reasons. Either nobody in the study group holds the credential your subject needs, or you've arrived so late that the arithmetic doesn't work any more.
Both answers show up in the quote, not in week six when you've already paid. If a term genuinely can't be rescued we'll say so and explain what we'd do instead, which is sometimes as simple as protecting one course and letting another go. Nobody enjoys hearing it, but finding out now is a lot cheaper than finding out in November.
How much of it you keep
Some students want to approve everything before it's submitted. Others want to hand over a rough stretch of the term and just get a short message on Sundays telling them what's done. Both are completely normal, and you can switch between them mid-term by sending one message.
Whichever way you go, the writing has to sound like you. That means somebody spending twenty minutes with two or three older submissions of yours before typing a word, picking up how long you let a sentence run and how formal you get when you're being careful. It matters more than people expect: the same instructor reads you every week, and week nine suddenly sounding like a different person is the one thing they'd actually notice.
What it costs, and why we can't tell you yet
There's no price list, and any service that hands you one before reading your syllabus is guessing. A quote comes from counting what's genuinely left, judging how long each piece takes at your level, and adding up. Two identical-sounding courses can be a week apart in real work.
Rough scale, so you know which conversation you're having: one assignment or a week of discussion posts is a small number. An undergraduate course taken end to end is a bigger one, and graduate nursing or doctoral coursework is bigger again, because of who has to write it. Our pricing guide lays out the ranges properly. You don't pay anything until you've seen your own number and said yes.
Send the course
Program, school, and roughly where you are in the term. Two minutes. You'll have a real answer within two hours.
Look at the list
Everything still due, dated, with our targets in front of the real deadlines. Change it, cut it, or say go.
Get your evenings back
Work lands early, one short note each week keeps you current, and the course stops living in your head.
Questions people actually ask
Which schools do you know well?
Twelve get their own page here: Capella, Walden, Chamberlain, GCU, Purdue Global, WGU, SNHU, ASU Online, Phoenix, Herzing, ACE and Liberty. Dozens of other programs have passed through since 2008 without earning a page yet. If yours isn't on the list, just name it when you write in and somebody will tell you honestly whether we know that platform well enough to be useful.
Is this connected to my university in any way?
Not at all. NPGrads is independent, affiliated with no university and endorsed by none of them. Those names are on this site because our specialists have spent years working inside those courserooms, and for no other reason. Nobody here contacts your school, your instructor or your classmates, and your details stop with the person doing your work.
I'm already weeks behind. Is it too late?
Often it isn't, and the quote will tell you either way. Send where your gradebook stands along with the course. Whoever reads it works out which assessments still carry enough weight to matter and prices a recovery around those. If the numbers genuinely don't work you'll be told that instead, and it costs you nothing to find out.
How private is this really?
Everyone in the study group works under a standing non-disclosure agreement, your engagement is visible only to the person assigned to it, and billing shows up discreetly. The notes published on this site carry initials and a subject, never a name. We've never contacted a school or an employer about a student and we're not about to start.
What if something comes back wrong?
Written work includes a free revision within seven days, against what was originally agreed. If a course starts going sideways it goes to a lead rather than into a support queue. And when a delivery slips because of something at our end, with nothing else arranged, the money for that piece goes back to you. That sits in the terms, which is the only place a promise like that means anything.
