College Tuition is ****ed Up....

That sucks hardcore.

Do you get credit hours for internship?

stlchiefs · 05-01-2007, 09:43 PM

You are getting college credit right? It's no different than taking an on campus class during the summer, except you are doing an internship. Would it be better to just volunteer on the campaign and skip the 3 hours to save the money. A lot of times paying for summer school fees like you listed isn't worth it unless you are taking at least 6 to 9 credit hours. I'd recommend not taking the hours or taking another class or 2.

Yea, 3... it actually works out well because I will graduate on time now next May...... but 900 bucks is crazy...

I think $500 or so probably goes to a prof who gets to read my 5 page paper at the end of the year telling how many things I learned!

Doubtful.

Just another example of how our College system is corrput and money hungry. The funniest part about college is you pay out the ass for someone in the end who can fail you.

That to me sounds like paying a mechanic to break your car. And then charge you more to fix it.

or you pay out the ass for an education and YOU can fail. Professors don't fail students, students fail themselves. You get the grade you earn (or don't earn).

So either take another class over the summer to get your money's worth from the fees and have a lighter load next semester or bone up and take the extra 3 credits next semester.

BS. But I am not here to debate that.

If you supported Hillary she'd do everything she could to help you out at the taxpayers' expense

KCChiefsMan · 05-01-2007, 09:55 PM

my major required a 16 hour credit internship with ridiculous deadlines (april 20th or some crap for an august internship, when most companies don't start interviewing for that until the summer at the earliest)...anyways I had to pay KU for 16 course hours and pay all of the campus fees..PLUS an extra "higher learning" fee of $125, which made no sense to me whatsoever because all KU had to do was review my internship review and that probably took less then 30 minutes. so basically I paid about $3,500 to work for free. and I had a full time job all through school and paid for everything myself....that sucked a lot. working the internship 9-5 and then going to work 6-CL at that restaurant to pay bills
