Help! Where can I get these 4 courses?Community College?

Pre-College Issues Summer Programs

<p>Dear everyone, this is my first thread here at CC.:)</p>

<p>I am planning to apply a Master program in Economics in2008 Fall. But, I was major in Computer Science when I was on campus. The Economic Dept. requires four prerequisite courses which I have not taken till now, as follows...</p>

<p>Econ201 Principles of MicroEcon
Econ202 Principles of MacroEcon
Econ310 Intermediate MicroEcon Analysis
Econ320 Intermediate MacroEcon Analysis</p>

<p>The graduate dept. provides these courses as well, but it's more expensive. I don't think it is worthy taking, because I have learnt a lot about these topics. A friend of me told me sth, and so, I am planning to manage it in some community college. He said I may participate in a non-degree program in the summer prior to 08fall enrollment. Disappointedly, it's likely that most colleges only provide "Principles of Economics I&II", what I want to know is ...</p>

<p>(Q1)Dose the course "Principles of Economics I&II" can substitute these 4 courses?</p>

<p>(Q2)In California, where can I take 4 courses in merely one summer program? in city LA,Santa Barbara,San Diego,San Francisco,etc..Or, any substitutable program?</p>

<p>(Q3)Any other means helps? I mean anywhere else except Community College(CC^_^) can I get these course units? Because I am not quite familiar with California, or more exactly, US. I am an international applicant.</p>

<p>Thank you in advance!</p>

<p>Normally Principles of Ecnomics I&II refers to Principles of micro and macro. They won't substitute for the intermediate econs. </p>

<p>If you don't want to take the courses at a CC you can probably take them at a UC or a CU. I'm not quite sure about this though. My brother took courses at UCLA over the summer but he was a full time student during the year and it was probably only 2 courses. Sorry that i'm not more of a help.</p>

<p>ThX Karen! Intermediate-level Econ courses are really quite fewer in Community College. If cannot find a program containing Intermediata Econ, I will enter a summer program with Principles of Econ I&II in Community C, and simultaneously take courses on campus, e.g. SDSU.</p>

<p>I agree - every community college offers "a class called microeconomics and a class called macroeconomics" (or I supposed, one class of both) but not all offer the intermediate level courses and taking these at the undergraduate level at a state college should work.</p>
