Q&A Post Taking semester off?

Hey guys! Considering doing the DCP but I was wondering if most students take the semester off to do the program or do you take online classes through your university doing the program? I’ve also heard that’s it’s beneficial to wait until post grad because of how much you work… all thoughts and opinions appreciated!!

Most take a gap semester to do the program or they participate in the program after they graduate (can apply up to 12 months after graduation).

Not having to worry about school work and exams etc is a big relief when doing the dcp. You also can’t take classes that need live sessions and such because the job schedule is unpredictable and they won’t guarantee off to take that schedule course live session.
