Make the most of your time as you work toward your educational goals.

Life is busy and your time is valuable. With your goals, lifestyle and schedule in mind, you can choose the class type that works for you.

Late-start classes

Late-start classes begin several weeks (or even months) after the start of the semester. They are convenient if you need to delay the start of classes. Late-start classes are intensive and cover all course material in a condensed timeframe. Individual class sessions are typically longer than those of semester-long classes.

Short-term classes

Short-term classes take place during part of the semester, allowing you to maximize your time. They are intensive and cover all course material in a condensed timeframe. Individual class sessions are typically longer than those of semester-long classes.

Semester-long classes

Semester-long classes span a timeframe of about 15 weeks. Because course material is spread out over a longer period of time, you can learn at a moderate pace. Individual class sessions range from 50 minutes to several hours in length (depending on the number of times the class meets each week).
