Do I have to attend summer session?

If admitted to University Park for the summer option, attendance at the 6-week session running late June through mid-August is required. If unable to attend, students can contact the admissions office to instead select a commonwealth campus for a fall semester start. Popular and unique summer programs including the Learning Edge Academic Program (LEAP) and the outdoor orientation program AURORA are available for registration to first-year summer students.
