theres no way to fit as much work into a summer course as can be fit into a full semester long course. i'd personally opt for more hours in the summer, and less during the fall semester.

Take *at least* 2 courses over the summer while you're co-oping.

I took 12 hours during last summer (while co-oping 40 hrs./week) and did just fine. I would take 3 courses in the summer and just go lax in the fall unless some type of financial aid requires 12 hours in your semesters.

But obviously, take the easiest courses (humanities + something else?) during the summer while you're working.

You'll have to contact the instructor for the enterpeneur section of senior design for more specifics. Usually it varies by semester based on sponsorship / whether they pair with another major's senior design / etc.

I agree with SouthPaw, see if you can't take your humanities distance education over the summer. It should not interfere with your coop schedule whatsoever. At worst, you'll have a 40 hour workweek and maybe 10 hours worth of watching lectures/homework/studying.

Your final semester's time will be eaten up by senior design and looking for a job. Try to give yourself as much maneuvering room as possible.

Bite the bullet and take 2 humanities online over the summer. I did it and it kind of sucked, but fast-paced for 10 weeks is much better than overloading yourself during your last semester because group work isn't always scheduled at your convenience.

I'm taking 7 in the summer and 17 in the fall ... in order to graduate

assuming I get the fall classes I want/need, that is

if I don't, SPRING HERE I COME

Take 2 humanity classes online over the summer there are some really easy ones that require very little work ( IDS 201 Distance ED for one) also you may want to take the 2 humanities online from wake tech because its alot cheaper to take them there and way easy.
