Summer Studies

Credit Limit

The Undergraduate Academic Code (§ 5.5.1.2) stipulates that during the Notre Dame Summer Session – not more than 8 concurrent credit hours (including courses taken at ND and/or other institutions) may be approved for a single summer. Due to their intensive and compressed nature, AL students may not take and/or transfer more than three courses per summer.

Transfer Credits

Please refer to the rules and pre-approval process regarding Transfer Credit if you plan to take classes outside of Notre Dame.

In addition, Summer Language Abroad grants are available through the Center for the Study of Languages and Cultures. Please be advised that the approval of a grant request does not guarantee that the course(s) covered by the grant will transfer back to Notre Dame. Please refer to the rules and pre-approval process regarding Transfer Credit.
