Easiest class to take at Fairfield University?

Hey, I'm a rising junior thinking about Fairfield University and I've got to be realistic about my workload. I'd really like to know if there are any courses known for being less intensive that could help keep my GPA up.

Hello there! While it's important to remember that the difficulty of a course can often depend on one's personal strengths and weaknesses, you might find some intro-level courses, or courses in subject areas that you're naturally good at, to be more manageable.

Fairfield University is known for providing a rigorous academic curriculum, but students have mentioned that some classes seem to be lighter on the workload. Courses in fields like certain introductory courses in the arts, or learning about foreign cultures can sometimes offer interesting content with less intense workloads, but this isn't always the case.

It might also be helpful for you to reach out to existing students or alumni to get firsthand advice on curating a balanced schedule. However, do remember that taking easier courses should not substitute for challenging yourself and diving deep into your area of concentration. After all, college is also about exploring areas you're passionate about and pushing your limits to learn new things.

So, while it's smart to consider your workload, remember not to focus solely on the search for the 'easiest' classes. Look for courses you genuinely find interesting, because you're more likely to excel in a course that you're sincerely excited about and dedicated to. Happy planning!
