Summer Classes for Everyone

Summer housing is affordable and flexible. Pay only for the days you stay with a daily rate or two-month options. Summer housing is in West Snarr Hall and John Neumaier apartments. No prepayment is required for summer housing.

It’s easy for anyone to take summer classes – current and future MSUM students, high school students, students from other colleges or community members. Summer Session helps you catch up, get ahead or get done more quickly.

Courses are offered in flexible three-, four-, five-, six- and eight-week sessions from May 21 - August 1. Morning start times vary, with afternoon and evening classes usually starting around 2 p.m. and 6 p.m. respectively. This year’s course schedule offers more than 400 courses, including many LASC and writing-intensive courses.

We know you have summer plans, which is why about 75 percent of summer offerings will be offered completely or mostly online. But remember, summer courses are accelerated and require a substantive time commitment and effort.

The flexibility of Summer Session provides you the opportunity to balance other summer obligations while advancing your educational goals, such as preparing for an internship or jump starting the next academic year.

MSUM offers affordable in-state tuition for all undergraduate degree seeking students no matter what state they live in.
