Early Summer Advertising (Summer Course Guide Preview)
The Summer Course Guide Preview, managed by the Division of Continuing Studies (DCS), is an early listing of Summer Term courses for the upcoming year. Published in late October, it allows departments to promote summer offerings before the Schedule of Classes becomes available in January. The Summer Course Guide Preview is an important resource for students and advisors when creating summer enrollment plans.
Departments should use the Summer Course Guide Preview to advertise undergraduate courses that are expected to run and are unlikely to change substantially during the Summer Term planning process.
Instructions and Deadlines:
Deadline for Summer Term 2027: Monday, October 5, 2026.
