College students looking to earn extra college credit over the holiday break can enroll in a pilot program at Ancilla College. Ancilla is offering an online psychology course in a four-week winter term this year from Dec. 15 to Jan. 9.

“This so-called ‘mini-mester’ between our fall and spring terms was designed for students who need 30 credits annually for full state-grant funding or for athletes who need it for eligibility,” said vice president of academic and student fffairs, Dr. Joanna F. Blount. “But any student on winter break can take advantage of our low-cost online class and get ahead on their college career.”

The class, Introduction to Psychology, is a three-credit online course offered at a reduced price during a four-week term.

Students can apply at no cost online at www.ancilla.edu.

The online course is just $1,065 and requires only one textbook, Blount said. Students will have access to their instructor’s notes, class presentations, tests and discussions 24 hours a day on Ancilla’s online course system.

Apply for free online at www.ancilla.edu and select “Winter Term” in the application. Current students can apply through their adviser. Work will be due three times a week. Class size is limited to 30 students.
