Taking Summer Classes @ UW Oshkosh.

Summer classes are a great way to graduate in a shorter amount of time. It also is a lot easier to focus on just one or two subjects at a time. Depending on how many credits you want to take you might still be able to work at your summer job to keep up a steady income to pay for the extra classes.

Another good thing about summer classes is it is a great opportunity to take classes over again to get a higher grade. Sometimes when you try taking them during the spring or fall semester they don't fit into your schedules, but also they don't count as a credit for the semester so you could have a full work load but not be getting credit for a "full-time student" if you don't have time to take other classes to make up for your retake.

All in all, even though it might make you a little more crunched on money for taking summer classes there are a lot of benefits for enrolling. I hope this helped you make your decision!

Exercise

Exercise is good for people for many reasons. First off it helps you to stay in shape and keep you healthy which is pretty obvious. But it also can be used as a stress reliever. I know I turn to running when I am having a lot of stress in my life or if I feel like I am starting to get into a funk. Working out not only helps to make me look better but also to feel better at the same time.
