Community College of Philadelphia turns winter break into a path to completion - Philadelphia Sun

Students don’t need to take a break from earning credits over winter break. Community College of Philadelphia will offer affordable online courses during the 2015 winter break to help students and guest students from other colleges and universities accelerate degree completion. “These three-credit courses will require 6-8 hours of work daily, so students must be committed to dedicating their time to the coursework and be prepared for a fast pace over the course of the four-week term,” said Dr. Samuel Hirsch, vice president for Student Affairs. http://www.philasun.com/color-of-money/community-college-of-philadelphia-turn-winter-break-into-a-path-to-completion/
