Navigating a Maymester online course is a unique and fast-paced experience. Just as each student brings their own goals and responsibilities, every Maymester schedule will look a little different. Whether you're juggling work, family, or simply trying to make the most of your summer, building a personalized routine is essential.

Unlike a traditional semester, the condensed format of a Maymester requires steady focus and proactive engagement from day one. To succeed, it’s important to establish consistent habits around studying, participating in your course, and caring for your well-being. These habits will be your strongest allies in staying organized and keeping up with assignments.

Beyond the core coursework—such as discussion posts, essays, and exams—there are additional tasks that can support your success during this intensive term.
