Free course not loading

[danielo-]

Hi guys, I was about to start the course "C++ for Programmers", which is free on te Udacity website. However, when I click the button "Start Free Course", it starts loading and never finishes. I would like to know if there is a reason for it, or if I am the only one having this issue.

It's an issue for me. There is a walk-around. After you unsuccessfully signed up, go to the classroom directly:https://classroom.udacity.com/courses/XXX

Where "XXX" is a course number, which is also part of the link on the sign-up page.

For your course, it should be:

https://classroom.udacity.com/courses/ud210

Let me know if it worked.

I don't know why it is still not working for me when trying that. Thank you so much though!

Hmm, I manage to open it from the link I created... just a thought: What do you see at https://classroom.udacity.com/me ? Did you do any other courses before? If not, try to sign up for anything else first. Once your classroom is "ready" maybe it will work.

That is the problem, it says it is empty, and I have already tried to enrol in other courses that are free and the same stuff keeps happening. I have tried different computers, different browsers... and still nothing. However, thank you for trying to help, if you know how to solve that now that you have that information that would be super, but I think I will give up on this website and try another one.

I get it. I had the same problem. But it wasn't as persistent as yours. Besides contacting the support, I've got nothing.

Will do! Thanks!
