Summer Session is comprised of over 1,200 undergraduate and graduate level classes, offered during 6 sessions throughout summer term. 

Sessions

 

Summer Session is one academic term, however it is organized into multiple sessions so that courses can be offered with flexibility. In addition to term length classes (scheduled during Session 1), sessions allow accelerated classes to be offered exclusively over the summer. Each session has different requirements and deadlines, visit the deadlines page to learn more. 

While the summer calendar lists session dates, it is important to note that:

  • There are four different start dates for summer session courses, depending on the session.
  • There is no "dead week" (pre-finals week) during summer session, as in regular academic terms.
  • Final exams are usually given during the last week of class. Check with your instructor for specifics.

 

 

Course Offerings

 

Summer course offerings are determined by the department or college that schedules those courses. Reach out to subject area contacts for those departments with questions about specific course offerings.

While the content of all summer classes is equivalent to a regular 11-week term, many summer courses are offered in accelerated sessions that last one, three, four or eight weeks. Check classroom meeting times in the course description, as these accelerated sessions typically meet for longer hours than during a standard term.

Course offerings vary based on the session in which they are assigned. 

Online summer classes are also available, and are administered via OSU Ecampus.

Class Search Tips

 

  • Visit the Schedule of Classes (classes.oregonstate.edu) to get started. Classes for an upcoming summer term are published by late January of that year.

  • Refine your search. You can narrow your search based on subject, course level (undergraduate, graduate, etc.), days and times offered, instructor and more.

  • Want to see courses by session? Select the drop-down menu for "Session" under Advanced Search to access all individual sessions that last anywhere from 1 to 11 weeks.

  • All course sections across all of Oregon State University's campuses will automatically display. You can further narrow your search by Campus to only see classes offered in Corvallis, Bend (Cascades Campus), Newport (Hatfield Marine Science Center), or Online (via Ecampus).

  • To display open classes (those that have not already reached their enrollment capacity), click on "Show only open classes."

  • Utilize the Scheduler to help you craft your perfect summer schedule. Exclude times that you have commitments, search specific types of courses, and add courses to your cart to make registration a breeze. For more information and a walkthrough, visit the Scheduler Page on the Registrar website.
