Housing is available to college students enrolled
in the Wellesley College Summer Session at a cost of $130/per week. All
Summer School students are housed in a designated residence hall
with professional
staff. Residential life will include social, cultural, and
recreational activities. There is a limited supply of housing
available, and students should apply as early as possible. Housing
is not available for high school students or 2008 high school graduates.
Campus housing is available for registered
students from Sunday, June 15th through noon on Saturday, August
9th. Wellesley students
who wish to register for housing should visit the summer housing
web site click
here to do so. Non-Wellesley students should mark
that they want housing on the "Visiting Student Application." If
you have questions regarding summer housing, please call the Summer
Housing
at 781-283-2681.
Meal Plans
Weekday (Monday-Friday) meal options are available
to both resident and non-resident students. Wellesley College
is pleased to be able to offer students the opportunity to utilize
the new Wang
Campus Center which offers dining facilities, a coffee bar and
a convenience store. Dining
services will be closed on the weekends and on the 4th of July. There
are limited cooking facilities in the dormitories available for student
use. More information on dining services can be found by clicking
here.
Health Services
On-campus Health Services will be open on a
limited basis during the Summer School sessions. If needed,
students will receive further referral information about health
care options in the Wellesley area.
Transportation & Parking
The Summer School provides a shuttle
service between the campus and local shopping and entertainment
facilities. The campus is also walking distance from the commuter
rail station
in Wellesley Square. Limited
on-campus parking will be available to Summer School students. Students
who are bringing a vehicle to campus for the first time
will need to go to Campus Police to register their vehicle.There
is no fee for parking.
Grades & Academic Credit
Grades
Summer School courses are taken on a letter
grade basis (A-D,F), unless otherwise indicated in the course listing. Space
permitting, the Summer School does allow auditors in certain courses.
Grades will be available online roughly 3 weeks after
the end of classes. Students may view grades by logging onto Banner
using their student ID number and pin. Wellesley College
Summer School transcripts will be available upon
request from the Wellesley College Registrar’s Office. Please
call 781-283-2307 for assistance.
Academic Credit
Wellesley College Summer School courses carry
full academic course credit. The four-week summer
term is more intensive than the regular year semester schedule, but
in terms of course material covered, course assignments, class
time and laboratory time, the Summer School
courses are equivalent to Wellesley College courses offered during
the regular year. Becuase the term is intensive in nature,
it is not adviseable for students who are uncomfortable covering
large
amounts of material in a short amount of time to sign up for Summer
Session. For those who wish to transfer credits from Wellesley, please
consult in advance
with
the
Registrar
of your
college
or university.
