We work closely with the Financial Aid and Bursar's Offices to ensure that the complexities of this process are made as easy as possible for all registering students. A meeting to discuss financial aid issues will be scheduled for mid Spring semester. It's important that all financial aid and tax forms be submitted early to avoid as many problems as possible. Courses will be scheduled in accordance with what most students need to take during the first term of their junior year. Other university summer session courses are also in session.
Many students choose to take a humanities course in the evening.
Summer courses are taught with the same number of hours teaching time as they are during the regular semesters. The course content is also equivalent to regular courses, and teaching assistants are assigned to each course. There is no evidence that grades are adversely affected by smaller summer classes. To that end, the Co-op office sponsors a picnic, ice cream socials, and team sports where students can relax and interact with each other. Membership to this organization is open to all Co-op students.
