Even though there is still snow on the mountains, it is not too early to be thinking of summer classes for your student. Registration for Boise State summer classes opens on Tuesday, February 16.
Summer classes can help your student graduate faster, pursue a minor, or take a more manageable course load during the academic year. Over 10,000 students took summer classes last year. In fact, 80% of last year’s graduating Boise State students took summer classes during their time here.
The perks of summer classes? Our summer students say it best:
“I loved the flexibility and discounted tuition that Boise State’s summer program offered.”
“It’s just better than normal classes! ”
“I feel very fortunate to have taken the class with a wonderful professor and lab instructor. Having the ability to interact with them in an intimate setting (~30 students) was awesome!”
“Much better than I expected! I loved that I was able to go home for the summer and still get a head start on my classes.”
“There’s a more casual, laid back feeling in the summertime.”
“I loved my three-week class. It was intense, but meeting every day was an opportunity to really immerse myself in the content.”
“It’s just better than normal classes!”
