Summer School Application & Registration

New Undergraduate Applicants
Applicants seeking to enroll in a Summer School class should complete the Application and Registration form (PDF). Mail, fax, or bring the completed application to the School of Continuing Studies. There is no application fee, but payment for classes may be submitted with the application.

New Graduate Applicants
In addition to completing the Application and Registration form (see link above), graduate applicants should complete the Information Form (PDF) for the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences.

What happens when I complete the Registration and Application form?
If your Application and Registration form is fully and correctly completed, your information is entered into the main University enrollment database. In addition, you will be registered in BannerWeb for classes you listed on the form as soon as possible. If questions about your form prohibit action, you will receive an email or phone message explaining the problem and requesting clarification.

Current University of Richmond Student Applicants
If you are currently attending a school of the University, or you attended the previous semester, contact the Summer School office at 804-289-8133 to be reinstated. University students who have been away from the University longer than 2 semesters should apply as new students.

Room and Board
Applicants requesting room and board for applicable summer terms should complete the Room and Board Application (PDF). Payment must accompany the form, and applicants must be enrolled in a summer course before room and board will be approved. Strict submission deadlines apply. The Room and Board Application should be submitted to the Office of Student Accounts.

Individual Instruction
Students enrolling in an independent study or internship for the summer should complete the Individual Instruction Course Request form (PDF). The form requires both student and sponsoring faculty member to complete separate sections.

What happens when I submit these forms?
Provided you are enrolled in a summer class, payment accompanies your application, and you file your Room and Board Application within the published deadline, your request for Room and Board will be processed as soon as possible. You will receive your apartment and roommate assingment by mail. Requests for Individual Instruction will be handled by the Office of the University Registrar and/or the Summer School Office on a case-by-case basis.

Fees and Payment
The Office of the University Bursar publishes fees and provides details on payment options. A summary of the information appears in the Summer School catalog, or you may review details from the Office of the Bursar. Fees change annually, so be sure to review information for the correct summer term.

Payment Deadline
Tuition fees for Summer School courses are due no later than the first day of the term. Residence fees should accompany the Room and Board application. Review the Summer calendar for specific term dates.

What happens when I pay my fees on time?
You may register for classes before submitting payment, but you will not be able to attend a class without submitting payment. Timely payment ensures that your name will appear on the instructor's roll, that you will be provided room and board (if applicable) upon arrival, and that you will receive appropriate credit for courses taken.

  What should you be aware of as you select courses?
  Look for prerequisites to be sure you meet the qualifications for taking a class. You will not be allowed to register for a class whose prerequisite(s) you have not met. Note class meeting dates and times to be sure the class will fit your academic, professional, and personal schedules. Be sure the class remains active; cancelled classes are indicated by a strikethrough.
