scan.hasNext() breaks before printing last line in code in While loop?

Why is this loop not printing the last line in the .txt file that I have saved elsewhere? It prints out all the lines except the very last one.

int count = 0;

Courses[] POS = new Courses[26];

while (scan.hasNext())
{
    POS[count] = new Courses(scan.nextLine());

    System.out.println(POS[count]);
    scan.nextLine();

    count++;
}

I think the problem is that, as demongolem pointed out in the comments, you're calling scan.nextLine() twice.

If you have an even-numbered length of lines, that would mean this would print out every other line. If you have an odd-numbered length of lines, that would mean it would print out every other line, then throw an exception (NoSuchElement I believe?)

You are getting the next line twice. You are lucky it doesn't throw a NPE or another exception :P
