Summer School Semester
It is that time of year again to talk about summer school! Taking just one summer of undergraduate courses can potentially be the equivalent of an entire semester of study and reduce the amount of time it takes to earn your degree.
Nearly all summer classes are online and are taught by Anderson University faculty, so you can take a class from a professor you already know. And the cost of these courses – $415 per credit hour – is very competitive since we keep additional fees to a minimum.
Invest in yourself this summer.
- First, talk to your advisor about the best course options (log into Student First and select Academics – Enrollment; make sure to select 2254 Summer at the top left).
- Complete the summer financial services form
- The Office of Financial Aid & Scholarships will review the request and determine eligibility. Once approved, the next steps will be with Student Accounts.
- Student Accounts will review the request and work with students who may have an enrollment hold regarding available options.
- Once the student is cleared with Student Accounts, the Office of the University Registrar will approve summer term enrollment, allowing online registration through Student First starting February 16, 2026.
- Following enrollment, students are responsible for logging into their Anderson Campus Store account for textbook material information and ordering so that they will be prepared to start classes. https://anderson.slingshotedu.

Summer courses are offered in three different sessions, so pay attention to 2026 session dates:
- First Session: May 11 – July 2
- Second Session: July 6 – August 28
- Full Session: May 11 – August 28
Two important financial aid notes:
- Students using a student loan for summer courses must take at least 6 hours to be eligible (this is a government regulation); and
- You can only sign up for as many hours as you are approved by your financial aid adviser. Anything over 12 credit hours (even if approved for more) must be approved by Dr. Leiter.
Classes with insufficient enrollment may be canceled. In such a case, any enrolled students will be contacted immediately, and necessary adjustments made to their schedule.
Courses continue to be added throughout the spring semester, so it’s a good idea to check back frequently on Student First.
