Summer Classes in Houston

Hey, so I'm going to be in Houston for an internship this summer. I would like to take Calc II while I'm in Houston this summer, and wondered if anyone knew of an affordable, accredited 4-year school that might have like, evening or weekend classes or something that I might be able to work in. Let me know, any suggestions of cheap schools would work, I can do the leg work of researching classes myself.

 

Try University of Houston.

I'm not sure how cheap it is, but I'm sure it is cheaper than Houston private schools like Rice, HBU, and St. Thomas.

There might be more Houston schools that I do not know about.

 

Yea, I'm still kind of on the fence as to whether or not I'll actually take the class, I don't want to jeopardize work or not be able to go out and have fun when I'm not at work. I'll probably just not worry about it.

HCC is incredibly cheap. I'm wondering though, if classes start at 6 pm and I'm going to be an SA on a BB trading desk, will I make it to class on time, if at all? I know usually I would get out of work at around 6 or 7, right? Also, is HCC a 4-year school, because apparently my uni only takes transfer credits from 4-year schools...

I would say the last thing you want to do is piss off the BB you're working for so you can go take Calculus at a community college. This sends the message that perhaps you are not serious about working for them and may inhibit your chances of getting a full time offer. I would skip the class and use the summer to concentrate on the job and more importantly networking.

Don't make this mistake...

Don't fuck up your internship because you are taking a summer class starting at 6 pm. You will NOT be able to make it to class on time. You can expect to leave the office at about 6-6:30 on a good day and about 8 on a bad day.

When I summered in S&T at a BB in Houston, I was getting home at 7 regularly (after accounting for traffic). If I had a lot of work to do (research to do or projects to finish) I would come in on the weekends and stay overnight on the weekdays (though this happened very rarely and I'm not sure if its typical).

I guess it would also depend on which bank you were going to be at...

PM me if you want to talk specifics.
