Classroom Courses - Winter Session
Alvernia's winter in-classroom option, taught in a two-week long accelerated format, can fit into any busy schedule. Taught in seminar format, the courses often include the opportunity for students to share their experiences on the given topic. Expert faculty instructors use these discussions, as well as lectures and other assignments, to enrich the classroom experience.
With our winter in-class options, you will be able to balance college with work, family and the rest of your life with this two week accelerated format. Classes will start on January 2, 2013 and end on January 11, 2013. All course instruction will be during class, which meets MTWRF for two weeks. All courses are accredited and the credits are readily transferable.
