Class Schedule 2010

When is the onsite registration?
You must go through onsite registration to receive books, pay for your classes, receive course notes, and register for graduate credit, etc.

If you work at Lake Hart, we will have an onsite registration in the East building (location TBD) from 10:00am to noon on Thursday, June 10 and Friday, June 11.

For those coming from out of town, onsite registration will be held at Rollins College Sunday, June 20 from 2:00-5:00p.m. for weeks one & two and Monday, July 5 from 8:00-9:00am for weeks three and four.

How much does IBS cost?

Two-week courses cost $250 each ($325 each for grad credit) and one-week courses cost $125 each. In addition to meals and travel, the only expenses associated with IBS are tuition, housing, and (for families) childcare.

$250 Tuition Rebate!
This summer we are offering a $250 tuition rebate to anyone who successfully completes any four of the eleven required IBS core courses. This is effectively a 25% discount in the course of your IBS classes. Information about the tuition rebate, including the tuition rebate form, can be found in the information packet.

Drop/Add

Drop/Add will be held in Registrar’s office during the following times:

Monday, June 21, 1:00p.m. to 4:00p.m. (for all four weeks of IBS)

Tuesday, June 22, 1:00 to 4:00p.m. (for all four weeks IBS)

Monday, July 5, 1:00 to 4:00p.m. (for the last two weeks of IBS)

Tuesday, July 6, 1:00 to 4:00p.m (for the last two weeks of IBS)

During add/drop you may switch courses or change the status of your course.

Auditing Courses

Courses may be audited (i.e., the student attends class meetings, but no assignments are submitted or evaluated and no credit is given) for a fee of $225 for two-week courses. If you plan to audit a course you must declare your intention to audit during registration. Your status cannot be changed to audit once add/drop ends. Staff taking required courses to complete organizational requirements may not fulfill their requirements by auditing.

Withdrawing From a Course/Refund Policy

Withdrawals are allowed at any time during the course, but there is a prorated refund schedule for up to half the class held over a normal two-week period:

Two Week Courses

After two days - no penalty

After three days - 70% refund

After four days - 60% refund

After five days - 50% refund

One week Courses

After five days (for a two-week course) a student may still withdraw, but there is no refund and a grade of “W” will be entered in the student’s academic record.
