Reason #5 to take summer classes: The current job market
The pandemic certainly dealt a blow to a lot of summer job opportunities, but that isn’t a reason to be discouraged. Simply repurpose your summer and consider taking summer online classes to save money in the long run!
What do we mean? Well, if you land a job at $15 per hour and work full time for 12 and a half weeks, you might be able to earn around $7,000. Conversely, if you enroll in a full slate of summer online courses each summer, you could shave a semester or two off of your in-person college tenure, saving you between $17,000 and $40,000.
It’s Reason #5 (of 5) to consider taking summer online courses. Learn more on our website, and contact Brian Doak (bdoak@georgefox.edu) if you have questions!
