International American University operates on a semester calendar that starts in the fall and ends in the summer. There are two semesters (Fall and Spring) per calendar year and one Summer vacation. One semester is 16 weeks. However, each semester is divided into two sessions, each eight weeks long.
The admissions process is designed to assist the
student in evaluating and assessing their educational goals by coming to an
agreement with the institution to enroll and receive credit for the desired
program. All applicants applying to an academic program must go through the
institution’s admissions process. Applications for admission are accepted
throughout the year. There are six (6) enrollment terms per calendar year.
Applicants are urged to apply in a timely manner for the desired enrollment
term. For F-1/I-20 applicants, Admissions Portfolio (AP) should be submitted 30
days prior to the term of enrollment to ensure timely processing. F-1
applicants with a “change of status” should submit 60-90 days prior.
Each course is 8
weeks. A course is broken into 8 Lesson intervals to measure Satisfactory
Academic Progress (SAP). Therefore, each Lesson is completed in 1 week. This
gives opportunities for the professor to guide, assist, and support students’
learning process. Within each Lesson, a student will be provided instructions
and details as to how to complete the Lesson. Each Lesson is comprised of
various activities or assessments to measure students’ level of mastery of
various subject areas. Specific Chapters are assigned to read, discussion
questions to be completed, or case studies to be analyzed.
