What are modular courses and what is “modular week”?
A modular course has both on-campus and online components. For Virginia Beach modular courses, the on-campus component is completed during an intensive one-week residency or during weekend sessions. Modular courses also require work both before and after the on-campus session(s), which comprises the online component. This may include pre-readings, written assignments, online interaction, etc. The School of Divinity holds “modular week” (usually once each semester in November and March and throughout the summer). During modular week, all non-modular classes cease in order to accommodate students who are attending all day modular classes.
