Hoping to take classes in the fall
Apr. 9th, 2008 11:47 pmSo I'm thinking I might take a few classes in the fall if I can. I'll be able to get in-state tuition by then, having been here for 12 months.
The Georgia State University fees (as of now, though they'll probably go up a bit) are $494 per semester plus $171 per credit hour. Most classes are 3 credit hours. So that means:
Fortunately, Georgia Perimeter College (a public junior college) offers Calc I/II for $446 per semester (that's 4 credit hours plus fees).
And if I want to take their Principles of CS in fall and then maybe C++ or Java in spring, that would be $770 per semester (8 credit hours plus fees).
Sure, it probably wouldn't be the same as an intro class from a formal CS department, but it'd get the calculus back under my belt and get me started with programming classes.
I just hope there are evening classes available...

- 1 course would cost $1007.
- 2 courses would cost $1520.
