PDP stands for the Physical Development Program which is run by the Physical Education, Recreation and Dance Department (PERD). PDP’s are basically physical education courses that you may want to take to relieve some stress, do something fun, or make sure the “Freshman 15” doesn’t show up. Your tuition covers up to 18.0 credits, even though you may only be taking 16.0 credits. That means that you have up to 2.0 credits that you could use to take a PDP course. For a complete list of courses you can click here. The courses descriptions are listed in the BU Bulletin and the Studentlink will allow you to search for the courses offered by semester if you enter PDP under the college code. Please note: overloads are not approved for PDP courses unless you meet the other criteria to overload (see “Overload” above).
