To register, please create an account and select the Summer Session program, provide basic information about yourself, and choose your course(s). Your application will be complete when you submit the tuition payment and housing deposit if you would like to live on campus. If you have any questions or need help because you are using a 529 account to pay, please email us at [email protected].
Payment is due at the time of registration. As part of the application, you will have the opportunity to upload an unofficial transcript. It is not required unless you wish to live on campus or if you are requesting an accommodation on a specific prerequisite or corequisite.
*High school Students looking to take college courses, please visit the Pre-College page.

Confirmation
Upon receiving your registration and payment, the Office of Summer Session will register you for the course(s) you have selected. If there are any problems, you will be contacted via email or telephone. You can expect to receive email confirmation within 5 days after our receipt of your registration; the subject line will be "[Your name], you are now registered for Summer Session at Fordham University."
Please review the email carefully and claim your Fordham account. About two weeks before the session begins, you will receive a reminder email with relevant information for the upcoming session.
Approvals
Transfer Credits for Visiting College Students
To ensure that credits earned over the summer at Fordham may be transferred, students matriculated at other colleges are encouraged to obtain approval from their home school before registering. Once course work is completed and a grade is assigned, the student should request that an official transcript be sent to his/her home university.
High School Seniors
Please refer to our Pre-College Program description for more details. Please note that approval to take a summer class does not imply admission to any school within the University.
Non-Degree/ Non-Matriculated New Graduate Students
Graduate courses are open only to college graduates. Students who wish to take courses for enrichment, while making the decision to apply for admission, or while an application is pending must secure approval to take a course from the appropriate department or division offering the course. Submit the online application and send a copy of your transcripts to Graduate School of Arts and Sciences Admissions - Keating 216 or scan and email to [email protected].
The application will be reviewed and the department will send their recommendations to the Admissions Office. Students will receive an email notification of the decision. All graduates of approved colleges and universities are eligible. Please call 718-817-4416 with questions.
