Applied study is discouraged. The structure and intensity of the summer program is not conducive to larger course loads. Study during the academic year is based on course availability and scheduling, and should include applied instruction with lessons distributed across the duration of the semester. Students who are employed during the academic year will complete applied study on six weekends per semester, scheduled in conjunction with one course or seminar. Traditional full time students may pursue a combination of course work and weekly applied study during the fall and spring terms.
Some courses are available only during the summer term.
