Notes
1These are the official sessions of the UConn Summer Program 2019. Please note that some classes may run on schedules that do not match the session dates posted here. Most such courses run in Summer Session 3, but a few run elsewhere. Please check your course schedule carefully to be certain of the dates your class is meeting. Please also review your Bursar fee bill for due dates for all summer course-based and other fees. It is your responsibility to pay fees by the deadlines posted.
2Alternative Summer Sessions 1 and 2 are longer (6 week) sessions designed for most labs and some other courses that require a longer duration to cover the course content. Some language and other courses run within the Alternative Sessions but do not match session start/end dates. Please check your course schedule carefully for specific class dates.
