Winter break is a great opportunity to relax and take a break from studying for exams, but it can also be a good time to catch up on courses you need to complete for your degree. You can even use the downtime to earn extra credits so you can graduate early. Since winter break usually lasts about a month or so, it is the perfect amount of time to complete a StraighterLine online course. Most students complete our courses in 4-6 weeks. To help you out, we've created a list of some of students’ favorite online college courses that have a faster-than-average course completion rate.
