Welcome to UMBC!
UMBC welcomes students from other colleges/universities who want to earn transferable credits during the summer. You must be in good academic standing at your home institution and/or any previous colleges/universities you’ve attended.
You must first apply and be admitted to UMBC before you can enroll in summer session. Admission is valid only for the current summer term. You must reapply to enroll in future terms.
Deadline to apply for Summer Session I: May 20
Deadline to apply for Summer Session II: July 2
Be sure to review the academic and financial dates and deadlines for summer session.

- Register for your courses. ALL visiting students attempting to enroll in courses with prerequisites will initially be blocked from registering, even if you included a transcript with your application. Visit the Registration Blocks page to submit a prerequisite override request.
- Check your UMBC email and Blackboard regularly for updates before and during the session.
- Review your student account and pay your bill by the due date.
- Order your textbooks, parking permit, student ID card, and sign up for UMBC’s emergency text alert service.
