SMU-IN-TAOS

SMU’s 423-acre campus in Northern New Mexico is located at historic Fort Burgwin. This unique SMU option provides an experiential living-learning experience that fosters academic and personal growth. Students can fulfill major, minor or UC requirements during a variety of summer and winter terms. Diverse course offerings allow students of nearly all majors to participate.

The Taos campus offers several terms ranging from two to four weeks in January, May, June and August.

Enrollment is typically available during the fall or spring term immediately preceding the Taos term. Enrollment must be approved by the SMU-in-Taos Office, located at 338 Blanton Student Services Building, 6185 Airline Road.

Students attending SMU-in-Taos will pay discounted tuition rates. Existing SMU scholarships and financial aid apply to Taos tuition at a prorated amount.

SMU offers motivated students opportunities to take additional courses in a smaller class setting during the winter and summer breaks. In JanTerm, students complete one course in just 8 class days; in MayTerm students complete one course in just 11 days. The June and July intersessions are each 22 class days in length, and students may take two courses (up to 7 credit hours) in each session (overload available by application). A few courses run all summer long in a Combined 10-week session. Whether the goal is to get ahead of the curve, explore new interests, or simply stay on the track for graduation, Intersessions let students customize their experience and make the most of their time at SMU.

Intersessions courses are separate and in addition to the course load carried during the fall and spring semesters. Some 70 courses in a variety of subjects are offered during each May and January intersession, and some 200 courses are offered over the June and July sessions. Many courses fulfill University Curriculum (UC), major, minor, or prerequisite requirements. Any SMU student in good standing is eligible to enroll in Intersessions through my.SMU. It may also be possible for non-SMU students to be admitted as visiting students.

Intersessions are offered at a reduced tuition rate, and no other fees are assessed except for course-specific costs such as lab/studio fees or travel/accommodation for courses held outside Dallas. On-campus housing is also an additional charge. SMU students should consult with their financial aid adviser for assistance regarding applicable financial assistance. Most SMU merit-based and need-based financial aid is available in pro-rated amounts. Federal and state funds are not available for JanTerm but may be available for Summer if a student maintains enrollment in 6 or more credit hours.

Students living in SMU Residential Commons who wish to remain on campus during an intersession program may stay in their current room during JanTerm. Students in residence and staying for MayTerm are eligible for on-campus housing by application, but those accepted will be moved to a single MayTerm commons. On-campus housing is available by application to any student attending June and July, space permitting. All housing arrangements and fees are administered by SMU Residence Life and Student Housing (RLSH).
