<p>I've always wondered about fall vs. spring enrollment.
What's the difference (obviously besides the time..)</p>
<p>Is spring easier to get into than fall?
If I start in the spring, what would my schedule be like?
Because in the Fall it's generally late summer to late spring (for my private high school)
Would spring enrollment be from spring to end of winter? That's my logical guess...</p>
<p>Anyone?? haha</p>
spring enrollment is usually harder, most programs are geared towards fall deadlines. Now there are occasionally backdoors. You can enroll in the school of theater management, or airport management and then transfer out…however many programs limit this because too many students abused it. Take dual credit courses in high school- if yours doesnt have them ask why not? They are taught by comm college instructors or school instructors that are masters level. One girl I know of got her associates the same week as her HS diploma. Go to community college, the teaching is better. Then transfer to a 4 year program and learn to balance fun and work. When you attend a university, take online comm college courses over the summer or concurrently thru the year. Typically your last full year(sometimes 2) must be completed at your University to get a degree there. Transfer courses do NOT count towards your university GPA, so take organic chem at the comm college. The teaching is better anyway. A biology prof at a community college gets raises based on teaching improvement and skills. A bio prof at a university gets huge raises based off of research skills, and paid vacations (aka conference presentations) but no rewards for teaching. The last professors hiring committee I served on they chose a guy who creeped some female students out over an amazing young man that had awesome teaching skills and was amazingly personable. The new hire also had a 50% fail rate in intro to psych at ISU. Its hard for some highly intelligent people to recall that not everyone knows the goldmann or nernst equations of ion transfer across a semi permeable membrane during the action potential. They arent mean, they just cant explain it to a newbie anymore. They can teach 300-400 level courses and masters- phd level…but not 100-200 level. I am a university professor- 15 years as student, 14 years as professor.
