Article 10-(2) A student may take a maximum of five courses in summer school, not exceeding the total of 16 weekly course hours during the regular term (32 weekly course hours during summer school). It is appropriate for a student to take only one of the vocational practical courses exceeding 16 hours.

(3) A student may participate in a summer school offered at a university as many times as they wish, in accordance with the principles set forth in paragraph 2 of this article. If a student participates in a summer school offered at another higher education institution, they may receive up to 20 percent of the total credits required for graduation during their studies at that institution.

Article 5-(8) In order to take courses from the next semester and/or year, students who do not have a repeat course and whose GPA is at least 3.00 can take courses worth a maximum of 10 ECTS from the next semester/year that do not have prerequisites in a semester/year, and a maximum of 16 ECTS in summer school.

 

This means you can take a maximum of 16 ECTS courses in summer school.
