Students can now take an online course during winter break.
WVU students looking to make the most of their upcoming winter break can now take an online course during WVU Online’s new “Winter Intersession,” Dec. 14-Jan. 4.
With this accelerated format, students can earn up to three credits in just three weeks.
Registration is going on now and is available at https://online.wvu.edu/winter.
Whether you are looking to fit that extra course into your schedule, boost your GPA, get caught up, get ahead, or fulfill scholarship or financial aid requirements, the Winter Intersession offers a flexible, online environment.
“WVU Online is pleased to give students an opportunity to earn additional credits during a down time on campus,” said WVU Online Dean Keith Bailey. “Students who are looking to quickly earn credits in a GEF, or those wanting to lessen their Spring 2018 academic course load, would benefit from taking a Winter Intersession course.
