Why Take a 7-Week Class?

A 7-week class can help you:

  • Get ahead and make progress toward graduation
  • Lighten a future semester by completing a course now
  • Add a class later in the semester without waiting for the next full term

How 7-Week Classes Work

You’ll work toward the same course learning outcomes as you would in a traditional-length course, but the class is designed specifically for a shorter term.

Because the pace is faster, you’ll need to stay engaged and keep up with coursework each week.

1. Is this 14 weeks of work squeezed into 7 weeks?

You’ll work toward the same course learning outcomes, but the course is designed specifically for a shorter term. Expect a faster pace and consistent weekly coursework.

2. Will a 7-week class feel more intense?

The shorter term means you’ll need to stay engaged and keep up with assignments each week. If you’re unsure how a 7-week class will fit with your current course load, talk with your advisor before registering.

3. Are all 7-week classes online?

Course formats vary. Some are fully online, while others may include hybrid, laboratory, or practicum components. Check the individual course listing for details before registering.

4. Can I take a 7-week class if I’m already taking a full schedule?

Possibly. Your advisor can help you review your current course load and determine how another class fits into your academic plan.

Not Sure if a 7-Week Class Is Right for You?

Talk with your advisor before registering. They can help you consider your current course load, the class format, and how the course fits into your academic plan.
