Weekend College
Earn a degree on the weekends!
The college offers a variety of weekend courses that give you the option to earn an associate’s degree or to supplement degree and certificate completion. CSM offers Friday evening, Saturday, and Sunday courses.
One popular format is the “three credits/ three weekends” format that allows you to attend class on a Friday evening and Saturday on alternate weekends for a total of three weekends and three academic credits.
You are also able to earn an Associate of Arts degree in General Studies by attending classes offered exclusively on weekends (Friday evenings, Saturdays, and Sundays) at either the La Plata Campus or Waldorf Center and by supplementing these courses with telecourses or web-based courses. Students choosing this alternative format never have to enroll in weekday courses.
