The American University of Leadership Marbella has a hybrid calendar that joins both the term and non-term format of learning.

• The undergraduate program operates following a semester calendar, where the student is allowed a maximum of 6 to 8 courses/semester full time, and summer session maximum allowed load is 4 courses.
• The graduate and postgraduate programs have open enrollment every 2 months, students are allowed a maximum of 2 courses/2 months at the graduate level and 1 course/2months for the doctorate level. This calendar allows the adult student to balance the demands of career, family, and education.
