  <title><![CDATA[Online Summer Classes for Undergrads]]></title>
  <body><![CDATA[<p>Summer can be a time for students to unwind. It&rsquo;s also a great opportunity to catch up, get ahead, or enroll in high-demand classes that fill up each fall and spring.</p>

<p>This also applies to Georgia Tech students who can&rsquo;t be on campus this summer. That is because with our <a href="https://pe.gatech.edu/summer-online-undergraduate-program/soup-courses?utm_source=mercury&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_campaign=soup">online summer courses</a> they&rsquo;ll learn the same material as students who take the class on campus. Additionally, students earn the same number of credit hours and can shorten their time to graduation</p>

<p>Called the <a href="https://pe.gatech.edu/subjects/summer-online-undergraduate-program?utm_source=mercury&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_campaign=soup">Summer Online Undergraduate Program</a> (SOUP), the <a href="https://pe.gatech.edu/summer-online-undergraduate-program/soup-courses?utm_source=mercury&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_campaign=soup">2017 lineup of classes</a> is largely based on requests from undergraduates and student advisors.</p>

<p>To accommodate those who are not able to come to a Georgia Tech campus this summer, students who register for an on-campus summer course cannot participate in SOUP. Those in the study abroad program also are ineligible.</p>

<p>To learn more about the program, including tuition, technical and proctor requirements visit our <a href="https://pe.gatech.edu/subjects/summer-online-undergraduate-program?utm_source=mercury&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_campaign=soup">program website</a>.</p>

      <value><![CDATA[<p>Are you looking to stay on top of your studies or take a class that normally fills up during the fall and spring semesters? With online summer courses you can get ahead, stay on track with your hours, or get into classes that normally fill up.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Similar to Tech courses taught on campus, online courses are semester-based, and perfect for Georgia Tech students who will be working at an internship, co-op, or unable to be on campus during the summer.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Students participating in SOUP courses, are unable to take classes on the Atlanta campus, any other campus or through the study abroad program.</p>

  <!--  Disquisition: it's funny how I write these TODOs and then never
         revisit them. It's as though the act of writing the thing down frees me
         from the responsibility to actually solve the problem. But what can I
         say? There are more problems than there's time to solve.  -->
