Registration is now open for more than 100 online and on-campus summer courses, high school programs, and youth camps.
Summer is the perfect time to complete a prerequisite for fall, focus intently on a challenging course, try out an elective, or complete a course for an additional major or minor.

“Summer is the perfect time to complete a prerequisite for fall, focus intently on a challenging course, try out an elective, or complete a course for an additional major or minor,” said Walter Rankin, PhD, vice provost for graduate, continuing, and professional studies. “With online courses and flexible campus sessions, students can still pursue summer employment and enjoy vacation time with their families.”
