Hi all,
I work for a university based research center and will be eligible for tuition exemption (up to 6 hours) starting in spring '15. During undergrad, I never took abnormal psych, and when I took cognitive I earned a C (I was taking 25 credit hours that term; it's a long story).
Would it be worth it for me to take these two courses this upcoming spring? I'm applying for the 2015-16 academic year, so I wouldn't have even started these classes by the time applications were due, but I could bring it up in interviews as proof that I'm serious about continuing my education and making sure I have a solid foundation before pursuing a graduate degree. What are your thoughts?
I'm also a little worried about class conflicts and interview dates. My job now has plenty of PTO and a very flexible schedule, but if I'm taking 6 credit hours next spring, then it would definitely make it harder to travel for interviews.
