What is involved in taking an “intensive” course?

The Xtremeight five week-intensives are fast-paced courses in which you will be working both independently and in collaboration with your fellow students and instructor on a regular basis. Here are a few "tips for success" for taking a 5-week intensive course:

  • Dedicate approximately 20 hours per week to take this course. This time will include reading, completing assignments, and participating in group activities and discussion.

  • Participate fully in the course. Your ideas and comments, shared with faculty and classmates, are important and valued.

  • Manage your time wisely in order to complete your assignments on or before deadlines.

  • Seek assistance immediately if you are experiencing any difficulties. Your instructor or advisor can be a great asset to problem solving. Our Technical Assistance Center is available to you for any technical concerns.

  • If you are taking an online course, log in daily to check for updates, read messages, post to the discussion board, and work on assignments.
