SUMMER SCHOOL A growing and continuing summer school program provides students with the oppor tunity for a greater degree of flexibility in planning their total program. Students may enrich their course of study and reduce the overall time spent in college , or decrease their regular course load by careful selection of summer school courses . Visiting students find it refreshing to study in a different atmosphere and perhaps a different locale, and enter ing students find it helpful in gaining advanced standing. Work taken may be applied to both the degree and the teaching credential programs. Instruction is offered in standard courses by the regular Biola College faculty and capable visiting professors. Courses offered include Bible , doctrine , Greek, history , literature, mathematics , philo sophy , psychology , biological science , sociology, and other subjects. Credit is also avail able in connection with several excellent foreign tours conducted during the summer. Tuition , room, and board are appreciably lower than regular charges at privatecolleges: total costs are competitive with state summer school charges. Requests for the summer school bulletin , which is available beginning in January , and ap plication forms for admission should be addressed to the Admissions Office . Admission to the summer program does not presuppose or grant acceptance to the college for the regular school year. EUROPEAN, HOLY LAND TOURS Biola College , in cooperation with other accredited colleges , offers the opportunity to attend summer school while traveling. College assignments take on new life and meaning as the student visits such places as Rome , Florence , Heidelberg, and Paris. A number of excellent tours are available and directed by experienced tour leaders. These include tours in the United States , Latin America , Europe , and the Middle East. A maximum of six semester units of credit may be earned. These tours embrace a wide range of interests in subject areas , including history , art , literature, religion, and general culture and civiliza tion. The program is flexible enough so that the student may choose either a three or six week study period. Those not interested in credit may enjoy one of these tours as an auditor. All tours are open to those of college age and whose health is sufficiently strong to stand the rigors of travel. For further information write: Tour Department, Biola College . FALL SEMESTER IN GERMANY This is an in-residence program and offers a full fifteen weeks of study , richly supple mented by field trips in Germany , Austria , and Switzerland. Students are given the opportunity to broaden their perspectives and integrate learning with experience . Classes will be conducted in English and courses of instruction and credits are exactly the same as those on the La Mirada campus. The program in Germany is primarily for sophomores , but advanced freshmen entering the college , as well as some upperclassmen may qualify. The primary requirements are 1. satisfying the language requirements of Elementary German at Biola or its equivalent and 2 . continuing study at Biola for at least one semester (the spring semester following the fall semester in Germany). Every effort has been made to keep expenses at a minimum and stretch the educational dollar to the limit. The total expense including airfare, room, board and tuition, field trips, and insurance fees will not be significantly higher than the expenses at Biola College .
