Why study in the summer?

  • Upgrading – Need admission requirements for a fall program? Do your Upgrading courses in the summer and be ready to roll in September.
  • University Studies - Lighten your fall workload by knocking off a course or two ahead of time.
  • Diploma Programs – Been out of school for a while? Nervous about becoming a full-time student? Ease into the learning lifestyle by taking a course this summer. English 150 is a good place to start.
  • Certificate Programs - Start a career program in June or July and be ready for employment while other people are still in school.
