Understanding FHL Programs
Each listing on this page is a complete, full-time program. Some programs are made up of several courses whose credits add up to a full-time load; others are comprised of a single course that itself is a full-time load (e.g. a 15-credit, quarter-long course or a 9-credit, 5-week course).
Our programs are intensive, immersive, hands-on experiences. During the academic year, courses run ~8:30 – 5:30 Monday – Friday. Summer courses run ~8:30 – 5:30 Monday – Friday and ~8:30 – 12:30 on Saturdays.
As you’ll see when you click on the links below, some will show details for a group of courses within that program, others will show details for that single full-time course.
During any one term, students can only enroll in one of the program offerings noted here.
