Still wondering if you should take summer classes? Here are four benefits of doing so! As someone who failed classes during college, summer courses were a great way for me to catch up on my GEs to still be able to graduate within my personal goal of four years. In addition, summer courses also gave me the ability to take classes that were impacted at my school but now available at my local CC for the summer. Don’t be afraid to take summer classes to catch up! 🌊🌴 - Monica ☺️#communitycollege #summer #firstgen
