Registration opens March 1, 2016.
1. Work or intern. Courses are scheduled throughout the day and evening, offering students the greatest flexibility with work, internships, and other summer activities.
2. Earn credit faster. Students can earn 3 credits in just 6 weeks. Classes meet more frequently than during the traditional school year, offering an intensive academic experience.
3. Get ahead. Students can make progress toward graduation requirements or satisfy prerequisites for an upcoming semester.
4. Special "summer only" programs. Students may choose from special programs that are only offered in the summer, including GW Summer Institutes & Short-Term Abroad.
5. Online options: anytime, anywhere. Online courses are taught by innovative faculty, provide high-caliber content, and use the latest interactive technologies.
6. Smaller classes. Summer classes provide an ideal environment for students to focus exclusively on a challenging subject with increased student-faculty interaction. It's also easier to enroll in courses that are normally in high demand.
7. Save money with multiple course credit programs. Summer institutes offer an in-depth and practical learning experience, and many combine multiple courses offered at a substantially discounted rate.
8. Summer in the city. Free concerts, Screen on the Green, Independence Day fireworks, extended museum hours, or just a lazy float around the Tidal Basin — D.C. features a wealth of opportunities to complement summer study.
