Berklee College of Music Summer 2022 Free Course Discount
Policy
This initiative is offered to Berklee undergraduate students who attended full-time (enrolled in 12 or more credits) or part-time (enrolled in at least six credits) in fall 2020 for remote study. Eligible students will receive one or two tuition-free credit-bearing courses (up to six credits total) for the summer 2022 semester toward their degree requirements.
Eligibility
- Students who were enrolled full-time for fall 2020 are eligible for two tuition-free credit-bearing courses (up to six credits total), to be taken in summer 2022, toward their degree program requirements.
- Students who were enrolled part-time in at least six credits for fall 2020 are eligible for one tuition-free credit-bearing course (up to three credits total), to be taken in summer 2022 toward their degree program requirements.
- Students who were enrolled in fewer than six credits for fall 2020 are not eligible.
- Graduate students on Berklee's campus in Boston and on Berklee's campus in Valencia, Harvard/Berklee Dual Degree students, Berklee Global Jazz Institute students, and Berklee Online students are not eligible.
What to Expect
If you meet the above eligibility requirements, the amount of credit you receive will depend upon your fall 2020 status and your summer 2022 course schedule. Courses that are covered by the discount must count toward your degree requirements. The maximum amount of credit you may receive would be the equivalent of six credits. Certain exceptions may apply as the amount of the credit will not exceed the cost of your tuition, including Berklee aid. For example, if you are only enrolled in the $100 internship, the amount of credit you receive would cover the cost of the internship, or if you are a student receiving a full-tuition scholarship, this discount will not generate a refund.
Students who enroll in the summer 2022 semester will have their scholarships prorated, or adjusted, proportionally to the tuition savings when comparing fall 2021 to summer 2022. For more information and to estimate how your scholarships might be affected, please visit the Summer Scholarship Adjustment Calculator (login required).
