PARIS — For students planning to enroll in the courses they need to complete program requirements, now is the time to view and select courses for upcoming university summer and fall semesters. Registration dates vary according to university, with most campuses opening registration to the public in April.

Students may earn a degree from any of the University of Maine System campuses at University College at South Paris. Courses in education, computer information systems, health and human services, business, nursing, library science, counseling and the liberal arts are all part of the summer and fall schedules. Courses are offered on-site, online and via interactive television and video conference. Students also can attend classes at sites in summer and fall. Summer sessions typically run for seven weeks.

In addition to courses, University College at South Paris offers students a full range of support services. Center advisers provide career counseling and assist students with financial aid applications, course registrations, book orders, computer access and more.

Nikki Abbott, director of University College at South Paris, encourages those who are thinking about taking a course or exploring degree programs to contact the center for an advising session.

“Summer is a great time to take classes,” said Abbott. “The shorter sessions allow students to get ahead or catch up and lighten their course load during the fall and spring semesters.”
