Overview
THE 2009 SUMMER SESSION OFFERS two five-and-one-half-week terms, with the option of taking one or more courses for a maximum of two courses of not more than seven hours per term. Any course load beyond seven hours (two courses) must be approved by the dean. A maximum credit load in both terms is equivalent to a full semester's work. Many of the basic courses required for the bachelor's degree are offered, as well as a variety of advanced and elective graduate courses.
Several overseas travel and study courses are available to students during the 2009 summer session. They are offered by acountancy, anthropology, art, biology, communication, computer science, economics, music, political science, religion, and Romance languages.
Some special and unusual courses are designed to explore subjects beyond the traditional order. The Wayne Calloway School of Business and Accountancy offers a course, Summer Management Program, for Wake Forest juniors and seniors who are liberal arts majors.
High school students can find opportunities in the Learn-to-Learn course and the sports camps.
In addition to the academic programs, the summer session offers a number of youth athletic camps.
The summer session is an integral part of the school year. With few exceptions, instructors are selected from the ranks of the regular faculty.
