iStudy Courses

We offer a variety of courses for you to choose from. All of our courses are 3 credit hours and are available online through Blackboard. Refer to the course schedule in My Ole Miss to see when courses are offered (found in the Students tab, under Course Registration). 

Please note that most of the courses’ syllabi have a suggested Pacing Guide to complete the course in a traditional semester. These are written for the Fall and Spring semesters and Full summer semester students need to make adjustments due to the significantly shorter time period involved.
