Summer and winter schools are short-term, academic courses of one to six weeks hosted by various universities during the summer or winter of the northern or southern hemisphere. These courses offer a great opportunity to experience tertiary education outside South Africa.

Currently it is not possible transfer credits for summer/winter school courses, but you will receive a certificate from the respective partner university confirming your successful attendance.
