Flex Start Courses

Flex Start courses offer students the ability to complete courses face-to-face, hybrid, or online in an 8 or 12-week semester beginning after the normal semester start date. These schedules offer non-traditional start times to better meet the needs of busy students who need to complete general education coursework. New seats are routinely added to Flex Start courses based on student interest. Please check back often for additional availability on full courses or add yourself to the waitlist to be moved into the course when new seats become available.
