Students attending Stanford Summer Session are enrolled in either a regular degree program, the Summer Visitor Program, or the Summer College program for High School Students.

The regular degree program is for students who are candidates for a Stanford degree and who are continuing their academic work in Summer Quarter. Degree-seeking Stanford students should indicate on Axess during Spring Quarter that they intend to register for Summer Quarter. Separate application is not required.

The Summer Visitor Program is for students who are not presently candidates for a Stanford degree. It is open to students who are currently enrolled in or have graduated from another college or university. Qualified high school students who have completed at least their sophomore year may apply to the Summer College program.

Students in Summer Session, in general, enjoy the privileges of students in the regular degree programs except that work completed cannot be applied toward a Stanford degree or credential until the student has been admitted to regular standing. Admission as a summer visitor does not imply later admission to matriculated status. However, should the visitor matriculate at a later date through normal admission procedures, the summer work may be applied toward the requirements for a Stanford degree or credential at the discretion of the University or academic department.

For more information, contact Summer Session by email, mail, phone, or fax using the listings above. Information is updated annually in January and may also be found online at http://summer.stanford.edu.
