Extended Studies are offered to meet the needs of diverse learners – reaching high school students who desire to begin their collegiate career early and residential students interested in taking classes both in person or fully online during non-traditional semesters. Extended Studies includes Dual Enrollment, Winter Term, and Summer Term course options.
DUAL ENROLLMENT
Academic Policies
Gordon College allows qualified high school juniors and seniors to enroll in a selection of online courses offered during the undergraduate fall, spring, summer, and winter terms. Students must apply through the Admissions office and obtain guidance counselor approval to be enrolled. Students may enroll in on-campus and other online courses from the undergraduate offerings with permission of their advisor and the course instructor.
Dual enrollment students are limited to 12 credits per semester.
Tuition is heavily discounted compared to standard undergraduate tuition fees. See Dual Enrollment web pages: https://www.gordon.edu/dualenrollment
Registration Deadlines
Regular fall and spring undergraduate semester registration deadlines apply. See Undergraduate Academic Catalog. For summer and winter courses, see Summer Term and Winter Term registration deadlines.
WINTER TERM
Academic Policies
Gordon College offers a selection of credit and enrichment courses from various disciplines each Winter Term. Most classes are taught online asynchronously to meet student needs. Most classes start the Monday immediately following the end of the fall semester and run for four to six weeks. Classes taken for credit are billed at a reduced rate per credit hour since financial aid is not available. Courses are also available for enrichment only at a lower rate per credit.
Because Winter Term courses are very intensive, students should plan carefully to avoid outside commitments. Special refund and withdrawal policies apply to this term’s traditional and online courses. See Winter Term web pages: https://www.gordon.edu/winterterm
Registration Deadlines
Deadline to register: First day of term.
Last day to drop courses with no academic record: Fifth day of term.
Last day to withdraw from courses with a W grade: Ten business days following the start of the course. A $10 fee will be charged for each withdrawal. A “W” will be recorded on the permanent record.
Last day to submit remaining requirements and change Incomplete to a grade: March 19.
SUMMER TERM
Academic Policies
Gordon College offers a selection of credit and enrichment courses from various disciplines each Summer Term. Most classes are taught online asynchronously to meet student needs. Most classes start the Monday immediately after Commencement and are generally finished by the middle of June, but others, particularly sequenced courses, may extend into the summer. Classes taken for credit are billed at a reduced rate per credit hour since financial aid is not available. Courses are also available for enrichment only at a lower rate per credit. Summer housing is available; an activity fee covers costs of special programming.
Because Summer Term courses are very intensive, students should plan carefully to avoid outside commitments. Special refund and withdrawal policies apply to this term’s traditional and online courses. See Summer Term web pages: https://www.gordon.edu/summerterm
