Registration Begins Feb. 6 for Summer Session at Boise State University

Registration for summer session at Boise State University begins Monday, Feb. 6, earlier than in past years.

Students can select from a wide variety of core, upper division, graduate and Internet-based classes, as well as from a large selection of short workshops. This year’s workshop topics range from Lewis and Clark to fossil beds, from Shakespeare to Basque tree carving in Idaho.

Students can help fast-track their education by enrolling for summer courses, or catch courses they were unable to take in the fall and spring. Additional benefits of enrollment in the summer program include no out-of-state fees, no credit limit, lower per-credit fees and no appointment for registration.

“Most summer classes meet four days a week or less, so students can earn credits and still enjoy long summer weekends,” said Mike Stockstill, dean of Extended Studies at Boise State.

Picking up one or two classes in the summer could save a student thousands of dollars if it helps shorten completion of his or her degree by even a semester.

For more information and a complete schedule of summer classes, visit www.boisestate.edu/extendedstudies/summer.html.  Currently enrolled Boise State students can register for summer classes on BroncoWeb. Others should check their access on BroncoWeb before reapplying for admission.
