Summer School The College typically offers two, five-week summer terms. The first lasts from mid-June through mid-July. The second term immediately precedes the start of classes in the fall. Other special sessions are occasionally offered. A student may earn up to 10 quarter hours each term. The summer sessions appeal to a variety of students. Some wish to accelerate their college program. Students from other institutions may desire Bible courses which are not available at their institutions. Teachers find the summer terms convenient as a means by which to update themselves in their disciplines. Others enjoy the advantages of smaller summer classes.
