I have taken summer courses for two consecutive years and am now expected to finish my degree earlier than anticipated. DePaul offers a variety of courses in the summer which allowed me to take the exact courses I needed to stay on track with my degree, as well as flexible sessions tha​t worked best with my busy schedule. ”
