Advantages of Taking 8-Week Courses****
• Juggle fewer classes at once
• Stay on track and finish sooner
• Improve your grades

The 8-week classes have been an awesome part of my experience at SCC. They’ve helped
me with time management and planning ahead. Also, I love them because there’s not enough
time for the classes to get monotonous.
~ Millie K., former SCC business student
The 8-week classes are wonderful for returning students and working people and anyone that is looking to complete
their degree on a fast track! I hope there are more to come.
~ Dawn T., former SCC business student
This 8 week course has provided me with the knowledge that I need to thrive
in an educational setting.
~ Rashan B., former SCC business student
**** Results stem from multiple third-party studies on the 8-week course schedules.
