Why take summer classes?  It's an ideal way to fulfill all college, foundation level and departmental requirements, to catch up or to accelerate your progress toward your degree, and to take advantage of the small classes, intimate atmosphere and the opportunities to concentrate on just one or two courses at a time.

What's different about summer classes?  Summer Term regularly features not only courses in the full range of the Liberal and Studio Arts, but also several Special Topics courses in a variety of disciplines: these are often one-time courses taught by visiting faculty and offer not-to-be-missed opportunities for specialized study.  Summer classes are generally small, informal, and intense, and so a great way to really focus and master material, ideas or skills. 

And being on campus in the summer is in and of itself an experience. Click on the link to Summer @ Skidmore to find out more.

Registration for Skidmore students through the Skidmore Student System is now open.

Qualified high school students and high school graduates who’ve not yet entered college can get a jump-start by enrolling in the Pre-College Program in the Liberal and Studio Arts.
