UNC Summer School offers learning beyond traditional lecture courses

To make progress toward a degree or for personal enrichment, students can select from hundreds of Summer School courses, including many that are research-intensive, experiential and that offer opportunities for travel. UNC-Chapel Hill students use summer courses to meet general education requirements and to complete majors and minors. Depending on the courses, residency status and program, tuition for students taking summer courses can be a 25 percent or greater savings over academic-year tuition.
