If you purchase an SDS MicroMasters Program Track Bundle to upgrade some or all of the courses for one of the SDS Program Tracks, you will receive a discount on the purchased courses, and you will receive Paid Course Entitlements, allowing you to enroll in and upgrade the course sessions of your choice—but you must enroll in a session of each included course within 24 months of purchase.
Enroll Within 24 Months
You must enroll in and upgrade a session of each course included in your Program Bundle purchase within 24 months of the purchase.
Expiration of Purchase
If you do not enroll in and upgrade a session of each purchased course within 24 months using the Entitlement, then those unused Entitlements will expire. If your Entitlements expire, you will need to pay the course fee for any remaining courses needed to complete the program.
SDS Program Duration Consideration
The SDS MicroMasters program acknowledges that it is longer than many other programs. Depending on when you choose to start taking SDS courses and other scheduling decisions, the amount of time required to complete all the SDS courses may exceed the 24-month time limit.
The SDS MicroMasters program team can potentially work with learners to extend the time needed to finish the program.
How to Request an Extension
If you have purchased the SDS Program Bundle and your 24-month time limit has already passed, or you anticipate that you will not be able to enroll in and upgrade a session of all the Included Courses within the 24-month time limit, you must contact us directly to acquire an extension. Reach out to them by sending an email to mitlearn-support@mit.edu.
In your email, clearly describe the issue and state that you require an extension of your paid course entitlements for the MITx MicroMasters in Statistics and Data Science Program Bundle. Include the date of your Program Bundle purchase and how much additional time you anticipate needing to complete the program. Please also CC the SDS MicroMasters Program Manager, jrossen@mit.edu in your email.
By following these guidelines and reaching out to the appropriate support channels, you can address any concerns regarding enrollment timelines and potential extensions for the Paid Course Entitlements issued as part of the Program Bundle for the MITx MicroMasters Program in Statistics and Data Science.
