Take Stanford's Natural Language Processing with Deep Learning For Free

The content of CS224n Natural Language Processing with Deep Learning, a graduate level, one-semester course originally provided to Stanford University Computer Science students, has been made available for free to anyone in a self-paced version.

… In the free version, however, you get access to the course's resources and the full YouTube playlist of the recorded lectures without those limitations. That way you get a taste of what it would have been like taking the class as a Stanford student. Especially comforting when you consider that for attending there's a fee of $4,056 - $5,408.
