Summer Session

Summer Session at Pitzer is an outstanding opportunity for students to continue and enrich their education in a rigorous academic atmosphere distinct from the traditional school year. Students may choose from an extensive slate of undergraduate courses offered across the curriculum during an intensive six-week session. All courses are taught by Claremont Colleges faculty and established adjunct professors.

• Catch up or get ahead on units
• Fulfill the requirements of a major or educational objective
• Focus on a difficult course or requirement
• Continue your research or study of an academic interest
• Explore new interests
• Enjoy savings on tuition

Who May Apply

Summer Session at Pitzer is open to current students of The Claremont Colleges in good standing at their respective colleges and qualified students in good standing at other accredited colleges and universities. Incoming students of the Claremont Colleges are not eligible to apply.

Admission may be subject to review of the applicant’s academic status and potential for success in an intensive academic program.

Credit

All courses are regular, full-credit course offerings of Pitzer College. Students earn one full course credit (4 semester units, 6 quarter units) per course completed.
