What our students are saying
WVU Summer Term students share their experiences.
Angel Robertson
Anthropology, Forensics Minor
"It not only added more credits, but with the 6-week period, you had to really
focus on what you were learning. Everything was so fast-paced, it made
you want to keep studying and putting forth a lot of effort. If you’re
going to take summer courses, make sure you’re ready to take a whole semester’s
worth in less than half that. It’s very beneficial in retaining information
due to its fast-paced environment."
Bruce Mitchell
Educational Leadership and Policy Doctorate Program
"I took a lot of Higher Education classes and really enjoyed meeting the
new faculty in the program, Dr. Nathan Sorber and Dr. Erin McHenry Sorber,
made me feel welcome and provided us with the basics we needed to follow
the curriculum more comfortably! I was able to enter my program after being
accepted with more than 12 hours, because I took more before my degree
program actually began. It allowed me to get a jump start as a full time
working professional. This was a relief to me mentally to know that I could
chip away at a new degree and become reintroduced to the classrooms after
so many years since my masters."
Tiffany Thibodeau

"Try it out! You may find that you develop a stronger passion for learning
and that the online format is a great way to work outside of school and
still reach your educational goals while gaining valuable work /intern
experience."
