Here are a few reasons students tell us they come to Summer Sessions . . .

• Save Money — Unit fees for UC undergrads are capped at the cost of 15 units and there are no out-of-state fees
  "The rates are cheaper and it gives me a chance to focus on one class . . ."
• Graduate Sooner — Make up a missed class or finish some GE requirements
  "I decided to attend summer so I do not have to be here for 5 years."
• Enjoy Learning — Focus on a few subjects at a time while attending less crowded classes
  "I wanted to take courses for personal enrichment and interest while saving money."
• Get to know UCSB — Summer Sessions offers open enrollment
  "I wanted to experience taking a course at an entirely different institution . . ."

There are two six-week sessions (June-25 - August 3 and August 6 - September 15). Within these sessions, classes are offered in 3-, 6-, or 10-week formats.
