Summer Contract Courses

1. During the summer [there being no official summer term], students may arrange individual courses with individual professors on a contractual basis. These courses are evaluated as residence credit and are normally available only to enrolled Davidson College students. A student may choose to take the course for a regular grade or on a Pass/Fail basis. The work is essentially independent in nature.
2. A student with an overall GPA of less than 2.0 will be allowed to take contract courses only if the instructor and student are in residence for the duration of the course. A student shall be allowed to count toward graduation a maximum of two summer contract courses.
3.  To register, the student must get a contract form from the Registrar's office and secure the approval (with signatures) from the appropriate persons.  The deadline for registration and completion of contract courses (as well as the fee) will be determined and announced by the Registrar during the spring semester.
4. A faculty member may accept a maximum of four contract courses during a particular summer.
