The NLU Aim4Excellence courses are each five quarter hours and span two quarters (24 weeks). Participants taking these courses must abide by the following course schedule. Because each course spans two terms, transcripts will reflect a grade for work completed at the end of the first quarter (“Part A” – 2 quarter hours) and a grade for work completed at the end of the second quarter (“Part B” – 3 quarter hours):
