IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Summer School is optional.
Each Department reserves the right to withdraw a course if the quota for the course is not met.
Summer Course Load: Students can register for a maximum of TWELVE (12)
credits; e.g. four out-of-faculty courses (3 credits each), two in-faculty 6-credit courses, or three 4-credit courses. Finalizing students may apply to the Associate Dean for special permission to exceed credit limit.
There is no deregistration; consequently, if you add a course and you do not
drop it by the stipulated deadline, the course will remain on your record and you will:
be charged for the course receive a grade of FA
If you do not register for a course by the stipulated deadline you will not be
allowed to sit the exam for that course (see Summer School Coordinator). This includes students given permission to sit courses as exams-only.
It is the sole responsibility of the students to ensure that their registration is completed.
COURSE OPTIONS
M11= Full Course MLX = Lab Exemption MEX = Exam Only
(Students should check with their respective Departments to find out which category they are qualified for before registering). TIMETABLE - Students, who are pursuing more than one course, should choose carefully and register for only one course in any one time slot.
