As a college student, when you think of summer you think of summer school and unless you’re traveling across Europe or interning for some fancy company, summer school is where you’ll be every Monday through Friday. Although it feels like summer and it looks like summer, you can’t do any of the “summer things” because attendance in summer school is no joke. But what if I had a solution for you? What if there was a class that didn’t tie you down and didn’t tell you when to wake up, well you’ve probably guessed it, that class is online.

I’d be lying if I said my online summer classes haven’t changed my entire summer so instead, here are some of the places your online class can be held.

In bed, of course! The ultimate beauty of online class is to wake up for class without setting the alarm. If you are used to setting five+ alarms, get ready to enjoy some long-deserved beauty sleep. You get to wake up when ever you want, and after checking your social media accounts you can get to studying. Having class at home means around the clock snacks and naps when you are too worn out.

By the pool. Aka you can be tan and have As, how perfect is that? Reading your textbook by the pool is not only relaxing but it can also put the fun into reading a book for school. If it gets too hot, your apartment’s clubhouse is sure to have study rooms.

At your home sweet home. Everyone gets homesick every once in a while so if you feel like you need to go home on a Wednesday, go home on a Wednesday. Mom will love the surprise and she is ready to cook all your favorites for you. The good thing about having class in your hometown is you can decide when to leave rather than attending to a class schedule.

Out of town. Whether it’s in your friend’s college town or across the country, as long as you bring your laptop, you have school. You could finish your school work by noon and then out and about for the rest of the day.

After work. Some brave souls have decided to work this summer so if you are trying to increase those hours to save for your next vacay but you also have to do summer school, online is the way to do it. You could easily finish your assignments after a day of work and truly conquer two birds with one stone.

On your college campus. If you’re the type that needs to be on campus to feel focused, online class can still be for you! Go to your favorite outdoor spot, bring your hammock and you’re good to go.

What makes online summer school so great is that you get to do what you would normally do during the summer while knocking out a few summer courses along the way. Online class is perfect if you want to maximize your summer and have fun!
