Reason #4 to enroll in summer classes: Learn when you want!

Monday, March 15th, 2021

Perhaps you’ve heard the word as it relates to online learning: asynchronicity. It’s basically just a fancy way of saying you can watch online lectures whenever you want!

It’s Reason #4 (of 5) of why students here love the summer online program. They don’t have to attend lectures online at any particular time. Rather, they do their coursework when it’s most convenient for them.

So, if you’re a stay-up-late kind of person who doesn’t like getting up early, don’t sweat it: You can watch into the wee hours of the night and sleep in. You get to determine what class schedule works best for you.

Be sure to check out our website for more details, and contact Brian Doak (bdoak@georgefox.edu) if you have any questions!
