Individualized Instruction

Individualized Instruction provides an opportunity for students to receive credit for University courses by meeting with faculty members in other than the regular classroom setting. Instruction received will be on an individualized basis outside the classroom. This option may be used whenever the student cannot reasonably be expected to enroll in the campus course. University of Colorado main campus courses offered with department titles of “Independent Study” may not be taken via Individualized Instruction. If a course is offered via Independent Learning (correspondence or online), in most cases, it will not be approved for Individualized Instruction.
