Summer Sessions can save you time and money!
Summer Sessions is unlike any other quarter, conveniently offered in a variety of term lengths and class times. Students who qualify for our eight-unit cap on fees can save a substantial amount of money by taking more classes, so Summer Sessions is a great way to catch up or get ahead without breaking the bank!

How does it work?
Current UCR students, including incoming Fall 2025 students, don't need to do anything special to sign up for Summer Sessions. Current students can enroll on R'Web in early April, just like you would for any other quarter! New students can register as soon as they attend Highlander Orientation.
If you are a visitor who wants to enroll in UCR summer courses, there's a special application available March 3, 2025 for you!
Housing
Live where you study! Consider living on campus during summer and you may even qualify for a payment-free July and August!
