Students enrolled in the “saturday (In-class)” meet every week on Saturdays. Students typically take two courses per quarter attending classes on Saturdays only from 8:00 am to 5:00 pm.
Note: Summer quarters are exceptionally condensed over four full weekends (Saturdays and Sundays from 8:00 – 5:00) in July only with classes getting back in session in October (or late September if fall holidays prevent sufficient class time scheduling). The program course sequence aligns with the mixed-mode (online+intensives) program.
