Summer Session at UD is designed for students who need to retake a course, are planning to get ahead in their major or are interested in exploring courses that are outside of their major. Offering over 850 courses, including those that are rarely offered or unique in nature, Summer Session courses often fulfill breadth requirements and minor requirements.

While Summer Session is shorter than the fall and spring semesters, the high-quality course work is the same — just offered at an accelerated pace, which creates opportunities for students to earn credits quickly.

Registration for summer 2026 is open. Classes start on June 8 and July 13. 

Students can explore UD’s course catalog to find courses that fulfill their major and minor requirements, as well as unique courses that pique their interest — some may also fulfill breadth requirements. Faculty and advisors are encouraged to discuss Summer Session’s course offerings with students. Learn more by visiting udel.edu/winter-summer.
