Summer MiniMester: 2-Week Online Courses
MiniMesters offer a unique opportunity to take a college course in a compressed timeframe. Accelerate your degree, catch up on credits to graduate on time, or explore an interest outside of your area of study. MiniMester courses are offered 100% online for convenience and flexibility.
Mitchell students have the potential to earn 3 credits per course, for up to 6 additional credits per year during the two MiniMester sessions, offered in January and May. (Due to the rigor of the coursework, students may only take one class per MiniMester session.) Students should discuss their choice of class with an Academic Advisor before registering online.
