MIT IAP INFORMATION

 

The following courses have been approved by the appropriate departments at Wellesley .  Course descriptions may be found at the IAP web site at MIT:

 

http://student.mit.edu/iap/fctoc.html

 

Please be aware of the following:

 

1.      There is a limit of 1 unit of coursework from IAP courses during the wintersession period (this is a restriction that MIT imposes).

 

2.      Registration for these courses follows the same procedure as during the academic year, whereby a student should attend the first class to see if there is space, then obtain a cross-registration form and register for the course at MIT and at Wellesley (unless special registration instructions, such as a lottery, are included with the course information.)

 

3.      Only courses that earn the equivalent of at least .5 units of credit at Wellesley (at least 6 units of MIT credit) may be considered for approval;  a student may not combine 2 IAP courses to reach the .5 units of Wellesley credit.

 

4.      If a course does not appear on this list, earns at least 6 units of MIT credit and is one that interests you, please send me email to inquire whether it might be considered for approval.  A few more courses may be approved and the list will be updated.

 

5.      The IAP period at MIT ends after the beginning of the second semester at Wellesley , so be sure to look at the class meetings times for those courses in which you are interested.
