Summer quarter at OU is unique, as it is divided into two five-week sessions. Many classes are offered during one of the two sessions, but a few classes last throughout the entire quarter. The first session lasts from June 12 - July 14. The second session lasts from July 17 - August 18. Classes that meet for the entire quarter will meet June 12 - August 18.
Many advantages exist pertaining to taking classes in the summer.
In most cases, class sizes are smaller. If you need to retake a class, summer is a great time to do it because you will have more time to devote toward the subject. Also, taking classes in the summer will help you graduate on time or you may graduate early. If you would like to take a class or two during summer quarter, pick up a Summer Sessions Bulletin in Chubb Hall. Unlike the traditional fall, winter, and spring quarter schedule books, you will NOT find a complete listing of classes and call numbers in the Summer Sessions Bulletin .
