Western Oklahome Intersession classes

Who has done these? I'm planning on doing the anthropology one on Christmas break to meet the cross cultural requirement. Any info on it? How hard is it to do?

I took the nutrition class in their 10 day intercessions and it was fine. Glad I got it done in 10 days. They offer 4 week sessions right now,so it will be interesting to see how long the intercessions are in the summer but either way will be taking music there this summer. Yes doable with an OU class. If you take it at Wosu I have the book if you need it and will be happy to give it to you.

A very nice school to work with. Great experience and highly recommend!

Thanks for posting all of your information!! Appreciate it :)

Agreed. They have clear cut instruction...no hoops to jump thru. No confusions. Just like OU.......not!

I have two more electives to take after evidence based practice and leadership. Has Western Oklahoma offered a business communication or ethics course that would transfer to OU? I work full time but would like to finish these electives ASAP. Are the intercession classes doable with a 40 hour work week. I am considering using some vacation days to get these classes completed. Comments, suggestions welcomed. Thanks!

"Frills" Western Oklahoma is doing away with their 10 day intercession, but I was informed they don't know how long the summer sessions will be. I took Anthropology there and nutrtion in 10 days. Lots of work but well worth getting the classes done with (especially anthropology which was BORING) They right now have 4 week classes going.No business communications class,do you need ethics?

Woodsyny, Yes I need to take the intro to ethics. It is offered in the summer and I would have to take it with business comm both 15 week classes......

Many of us who have been in the program before they changed it and reduced the nursing classes from 12 to 9 still have Ethics--a philosophy class-as a requirement. I took it fall/winter semester. It wasn't difficult but assignments were posted in 2 parts so you couldn't get everything done in a day or two. I did not feel the class was hard, but others did. It is a different way of thinking. It would definitely be doable with a comp class over the summer.

How long are the classes that are not the 10 day intersession? I tried looking up the music or ethics class. I found the music class being listed as in the summer but it doesn't give me dates for when it beings and ends.

What kind of work do you have to do for the non 10 day intersession classes? Specifically the ethics or music class? I want to be able to enjoy my summer adn not be bombarded with school work and stressed out! Is there discussion boards each week? Tests? Projects?

The classes I believe will be in 4 week sessions. I contacted the registrar about the 10 day intercessions and they are no more I guess. She said the summer schedule will be posted in April so I guess that is when we find out. I want to take music and heard it isn't bad.

When I look at the Western Oklahoma university website and click on online classes, then go to spring classes (4 wk) - I don't see music or philosophy available in any of the semesters. That makes me a litlte nervous to have to wait until April to find out if those classes will be available in the summer.

Go to the link under the picture of the guy at the computer on their class schedule page. It says to click here to search the schedule and don't forgot to change the semester from spring to summer like I always do. I would put the direct link but I don't think I am allowed to do that on here.
