Attending summer school is a good way to make up "lost" units from the prior year or to advance in units so that the coming year can be "lighter." Before attending summer school check with your advisor to ensure that the course(s) you are taking will fulfill Dominican's General Education or Psychology major requirements. Fill out the Permission to Take Courses Off Campus Form to receive prior approval from the Registrar's Office. Remember that you need at least 48 upper division units and that community colleges only fulfill lower division units. You usually can attend any college as a "special student" as long as you don't exceed a specified number of units at that institution. Check with the schools that you are interested in well in advance of the end of the spring term.
