Summer Session


In summer session, students may earn credit in proportion to the amount of credit they may earn in a regular semester. For example, in one six-week summer session, a student may carry no more than eight credits or two courses, whichever is higher. A student with a minimum cumulative index of 3.0 or a student who is graduating from the summer session may carry an additional three credits.

If a student attends two summer sessions, at Lehman and/or elsewhere, and there is any overlap between the two sessions, credits representing the number of weeks of overlap must be subtracted from the total number of credits allowed. Students should consult with the Office of Academic Standards and Evaluation (Shuster Hall, Room 280).
