Summer Requirements
If you have completed one Fall or Spring semester at DBU while inside the US (and on the F visa), then the DSOs will NOT monitor your enrollment during the Summer Term
If Summer is your
first term to study or your
last term to study (only if it is your first) a Master or Doctoral Level student must meet the following requirements:
- You must enroll in at least 3 in-person credits that last the entire 10 week Summer term (BUAD 5302 does not count).
- You must enroll in at least 6 credit hours total. (After number 1 above, any term length counts: 10 week, 8 week or less)
See the following chart to understand what classes count as online or in-person credit.
What if you only have 3 credits left to graduate? Then, they must be in-person credits.
