It’s Not Too Late to Register for Spring Courses at Prairie State College

PSC offers 14-, 12- and eight-week options offered during the day, evening, online and Saturdays.

Spring semester is underway at Prairie State College (PSC) and there is still time to register. District residents who missed the opportunity to register for 16-week classes or are trying to find a way to fit a course or two into their schedule, still have the opportunity to register for spring classes with PSC’s convenient flexible scheduling options.

PSC offers 14-, 12- and eight-week options offered during the day, evening, online and Saturdays.

The 14-week courses begin Jan. 30 and 12-week courses begin Feb. 10. All of these courses offer the same course material and credit hours as the 16-week classes. However, the shorter the number of weeks, the longer the class period.

PSC also offers two eight-week course options. The first eight week sessions began January 17. The second eight-week courses begin March 20. The eight-week courses are typically fewer credit hours. Many of the college certificate programs offer eight-week courses, allowing students to fit two courses in a semester and to make progress towards that certificate.

The PSC Foundation offers scholarships for tuition, books and fees. The sooner you apply, the sooner you can start researching scholarships and putting a payment plan in place. For more information on scholarships, visit prairiestate.edu/foundation.
