For Students Currently Enrolled at the University the South:
  1. Regular Returning Students should confer with their faculty advisors and then sign up for summer courses on Banner just as you do for regular courses in the spring and fall. Look closely at our offerings and pay attention to General Education attributes and prerequisites.
For Students Not Currently Seeking a Degree from the University of the South: 
  1. Incoming first-year Sewanee students or students who are seeking admission to a future incoming class should contact the Dean of Admission about enrolling in Summer School. Incoming students will be required to attend an extra-curricular program of sessions designed to familiarize you with resources on campus and help you succeed in your academic work.
  2. Undergraduates currently enrolled at other institutions should determine from their own institutions the policies governing the transfer of credits earned at the University of the South before filling out the special application for students who are not currently enrolled.
  3. Recent high school graduates who are not incoming first-year students at Sewanee or other applicants not seeking a college degree should contact the Associate Dean of the College for Undergraduate Academic Affairs before filling out the special application for students not currently enrolled.
  4. Auditors must register (cost: $500 for each course audited) by completing and returning the course-audit form, available in the Registrar's office. There is no course credit associated with auditing a class.

Tuition & Fees Information (Academic Credit) and CAMPUS HOUSING, Summer 2024

Tuition: $1,194 per semester hour of credit

The University of the South accepts a student only for an entire summer term, and a student is officially enrolled for the summer term immediately upon completion of registration. Summer School classes last for the entire summer term; therefore the full charges for the term are due by May 31, 2024. Students will receive a statement through Nelnet Campus Commerce. Any student registering for summer school after May 31 must pay the amount in full through Nelnet Campus Commerce before attending classes. Wednesday, June 5 (by 4:30 PM), is the absolute last day to register for classes.

Students may cancel their registration with a full refund (or full cancelation of all Summer School tuition, fees, room and board) any time through June 2, the day before classes begin. After classes begin, a student who is dismissed or withdraws for any cause is not entitled to any refund of the sum paid to the University or to cancellation of any sum due to the University. (An exception may be possible for students who must withdraw for documented illness, as per the medical withdrawal process of the Dean of Students, and any refund is subject to the standard practices of the Treasurer's Office.)

All current degree-seeking students already receiving tuition remission, or non-degree-seeking students eligible for tuition remission according to the University’s criteria, must obtain authorization from the Human Resources Office prior to registration.
