<p>Is it fairly acceptable ,after freshman year,to take a course over the summer at a home school to ease the load during the school year?</p>
<p>It is acceptable (though you should get the course approved beforehand) though it is many times unnecessary. I was able to easily graduate in time with a double major, but if you are doing something crazy like a triple major then it could be necessary. Normally though you shouldn’t have to do it, but if you want to, that is fine as well.</p>
