Anyone may participate in Summer Sessions. Registration in Summer Sessions neither requires nor implies admission to the University of Delaware. There are some courses which are designed for special student populations. Such courses may have enrollment restrictions or give preference to certain registrants. Students are advised to read the notes in the course listing section of this site, and to register early since courses are assigned on a first-come first-served basis subject to registration restrictions.
University of Delaware students should consult with their advisors concerning course selection. Students attending other colleges or universities should confer with officials at their home institution regarding transfer of credits. Non-matriculated students are encouraged to contact the Division of Professional and Continuing Studies ACCESS Center, 831-2741, for academic advisement. High school students are required to see an ACCESS counselor and receive advisement before registering for courses.
This booklet contains certain information which relates only to the Summer Sessions. Additional information about the University of Delaware can be found in the current editions of the University Catalog, and the Student Guide to University Policies.
