Pitt Business Summer Course Exception Form

Please read all instructions and policies in full before completing the Pitt Business Summer Course Approval Exception Form below. You are responsible for reviewing all instructions and policies and understanding how they apply to you. Once your Exception Form is submitted, you will receive a response by email within 5-6 working days.

Remember: you only need to complete an Exception Form if your summer course or college is not on one of our preapproved lists – or if you do not meet the requirements for summer course preapproval (less than 60 credits transferred and a Pitt cumulative GPA of 2.00 by the time you begin your summer course).
