The Fall 2024 semester has started for SC4, but interested students can still register to take classes this semester. Any student looking to register for traditional 16-week courses may do so up until Friday, August 23. If a student is not able to register or start on this date, SC4 also offers twelve and eight-week courses with delayed starts. These classes are perfect for students who have a restrictive schedule or are looking to quickly complete a class. Those interested in taking classes at SC4 can view a complete list of offered courses at sc4.edu/schedule.
