I am interested in taking an online summer course through BU to fulfill a General Education requirement. How can I go about doing this? How long will I have to be online everyday for the course?

Sincerely,
Eager in Endicott

Dear Edgar,

A listing of BU summer 2008 courses can be found at http://summer.binghamton.edu. The site allows you to search for courses according to General Education Requirements, department, term, and more. You can also specify your search results to show only distance education courses (online courses). Once you have found a class that you would like to take and pre-pay for registration, you can sign up on the BUSI Web Center from March 10-May 29. You can enroll for up to 8 credits per term and 16 credits for the entire summer session.

Each professor determines the course load for their summer courses. If you would like more information about the content and requirements of a class, contact the instructor before you enroll. Most summer classes are 4 credits, so Ask Ashley reminds you that these courses include the same amount of content that fall and spring courses have in a shorter period of time.

Sincerely,
Ask Ashley
