As is to be expected at a preeminent university, course work is demanding, and grading is far more difficult than in high school. Summer College participants are graded on an equal scale with the undergraduate students in their courses, and the expectations of instructors are the same for all students. For a list of courses, see summer courses . General Course Information Courses are eight weeks in duration unless otherwise noted in the course description.
Classes start at the time indicated, and run for fifty minutes.
Classes not conforming to this schedule will list specific ending times. However, this categorization is intended merely as a guideline, and students should not be deterred by these numbers from considering enrollment in any course. Summer College students may not enroll in courses listed as Individual Work, Directed Work, Directed Reading, or Research. Stanford reserves the right to cancel a course for any reason. Students should check the official Time Schedule , available in mid-May, and in hard copy at the Registrar's Office two weeks prior to the first day of classes, to ascertain whether changes in meeting times or cancellations have been made.
