Question of the Week...
Can I receive credit for non-Yale summer study abroad?
  It is possible for students to get up to two 
credits for summer study abroad, if they do not 
plan on participating or have not already 
participated in the official Year or Term Abroad 
Program.  However, while credit for Year or Term 
Abroad (non-Yale) programs is dealt with in IEFP 
and is virtually automatic, summer study abroad 
credit (non-Yale programs) will be handled by 
your residential college dean, and the DUS of the 
department relevant to the courses taken while 
abroad.  IEFP will sometimes be asked to review 
the transcripts in these cases, but you will 
primarily be working with your dean and the 
DUS(s).  Please refer to the section "Credit from 
Other Universities:  Rules on Credit from Outside 
Yale" in YCPS 
http://www.yale.edu/yalecollege/publications/ycps/chapter_iii/outside.html.
