May. The Winter Intersession, in January and February, offers
candidates 6-session courses dealing with contemporary issues in
psychoanalysis. Each of these courses counts as one-half (1/2) of an
elective. Electives are offered during each intersession, enabling
candidates to fulfill elective requirements. Some of these courses are
open to candidates at all levels of training, not just to candidates on
the Readiness-for-Control level. For students on the Enrollment or
Matriculation levels, each completed course during any Winter
Intersession will be counted toward their elective requirements. Tuition
for each Winter course is $200.
