For Trinity Students:
Trinity students can register and manage enrollments for summer session courses in March 2025 via TCOnline. (See Tuition & Fees above.)
Students can register for each session until the final day of each sessions’ add/drop period. A $250 drop fee will be charged for classes dropped after add/drop ends.
Students may enroll in no more than two courses per summer session. All summer session courses must be taken for a grade, not on a pass/fail basis.
Scroll down for information about summer internships for credit.
For Visiting Students (other undergraduates):
Visiting students to Trinity should first read through Information for Visiting Students and submit a visiting student application. Visiting Student registration is on a space available basis in remote courses only and you will be contacted with registration information once your visiting student application has been reviewed.
Course Cancellations
Courses may be canceled if they do not meet a minimum enrollment; students will be notified by the week prior to the session start date if a course is canceled. If that occurs, students may either enroll in an available replacement course or receive a full refund for the credit.
Withdrawing From a Course
Students may withdraw from a summer session course and receive a “W” grade prior to June 3, 2025 for Summer 1 and July 9, 2025 for Summer 2. After this date, withdrawing will require petitioning the Academic Affairs Committee for approval. Courses without withdrawal approval and left incomplete will receive an “F” grade. To withdraw from a course, students must notify the Registrar’s Office by e-mail. A phone call is not accepted as notice to withdraw, and failure to attend the class does not constitute a withdrawal.
