Gaining Course Approval
Once you have been selected to teach a D.C. Summer Institute, it is a good idea to get started on the course approval process. We encourage you to create new classes that use D.C.'s unique educational opportunities. Most often, your department chair will allow you to use topics courses for all of your courses.
If you cannot get the courses/credits you need through existing course numbers, you will need to petition EPC to create new courses. Visit the EPC site for more information on how to proceed.
Please note: It is your responsibility to petition EPC. Program Administrators cannot do that for you.
Student load & participation
D.C. Summer Institutes are currently capped at 20 students per institute.
