Summer. Smarter.
Study in the virtual classroom this summer.
Note: In the wake of covid-19, all summer session courses have moved online. If you are enrolled in an on-campus course which is converting to online, there is no need for you to change anything. All summer classes will fulfill the same GW requirements as during the regular year, even if the course has been converted from on-campus to online.

You can fulfill requirements, take in-demand courses that fill up quickly during the regular academic year and get a leg up on prerequisites. Undergraduates can also complete multiple G-PAC requirements with a single course.
Summer courses are available to undergraduate, graduate and non-degree seeking students. Working professionals and students from other universities can also take advantage of enrolling in GW's summer session.
Summer online classes provide flexibility and accessibility for working professionals and students with internships and summer jobs.
