<p>I'm doing a double degree so I'm thinking about taking a class over the summer at home. I've heard they will let you transfer a few credits in here from a CC at home for a summer class. My parents will pay for it if I want to take a summer class, but the questions I have are: Do grad schools look down on a university student taking 1 summer class at just a CC? Also, since the class is only a few weeks, do summer classes generally have an impossible amount of work to do that it wouldn't be possible to still have time to practice piano each day and have a job a few days a week? How many days a week do summer classes generally run- not every day, right, just longer hours?</p>
<p>i don’t think they’d care. it’s more work than the regular semester for sure but you still have free time.</p>
<p>The CC that im planning on taking summer courses have classes, M,T,W,TH</p>
<p>I to am taking classes at a local CC. The class is about 5 weeks, the entire month of June. No. I don’t think grad schools will look down on it. They understand under certain circumstances, one should take classes at CCs especially if theres a financial crisis. Plus usually CC classes are easier then their counter parts at private schools. Thats why its wise to take harder classes like Calc at CC like I am.</p>
<p>I just need to get probably 1 class out of the way, that would help, since I have so many to take and others that I want to take here, so I’ll just take a gen ed class there.</p>
<p>I can’t take it in June…I’d have to in July. For May Term here, I’m taking a travel course to Bulgaria (!!!), and we get back a little later than normal on-campus May Term courses, in early June so I can’t start a class yet then.</p>
<p>Wait, so grad schools would look at this as a bad thing? Wouldnt they look at it as something good cause we’re doing something productive over the summer?</p>
<p>I took a five unit summer class at a CC. It was three hours a days, four days a week for seven weeks.</p>
<p>It depends on the grad school. There’s no one, single, cut and dry answer.</p>
