Degree-seeking students: If you want to attend Mount Mary for the first time this summer and wish to pursue a degree on a full-time or part-time basis, you should apply for admission online. (Note: Each graduate program has different application requirements. Check the graduate program web page for more details.)

Non-degree seeking students: Mount Mary summer session courses are open to all qualified students. If you wish to take summer session courses for enrichment or you are a degree candidate at another college, you may enroll as a special student.

• If you previously have taken Mount Mary class (the immediate semester prior), you can register online via the MyMountMary portal.
• If you have not taken any Mount Mary classes before (or if there has been a break since your last course enrollment at Mount Mary), you should complete an online Special Student application. When the application is processed, you will receive an ID number and directions to create a unique password via email. You may then register online for courses via the MyMountMary portal. (Note: Admission to the summer session does not constitute admission to a degree program or permission to register for fall or spring classes.)

High school students: Qualified high school juniors and seniors may enroll in 100- and 200-level courses for credit with approval of the academic department. You should complete an online Special Student application and submit a recommendation from your high school principal or guidance counselor.

Teachers: Because Mount Mary is approved by the Wisconsin State Department of Public Instruction for Teachers’ Certification, all Mount Mary courses are approved for WDPI re-licensure. However, it remains the responsibility of the individual teacher to show specific subject-area applicability. For example, art credits may not be accepted for a physical education teacher. Contact a graduate admission counselor for questions.

To enroll in summer courses, visit MyMountMary to see a list of courses offered and then register as normal for the courses.

A normal summer session credit load is approximately one credit per week of formal coursework, with a maximum of 8 credits within the six-week session. Permission of the School Dean for your major is required for credit overloads.

We encourage you to consult with your adviser regarding summer course selection. It is your responsibility to register for classes by the appropriate registration deadlines.

To receive financial aid for summer session classes, you must:

• Be enrolled in a minimum of 6 undergraduate credits or 3 graduate credits.
• Complete the FAFSA and any required documents before your summer school classes begin.
• Submit the Summer Session Request for Financial Aid after you register for summer classes. (Note: On MyMountMary, under the Finances Tab, go to MyFinancialAid. You must have a 2023-2024 financial aid record already established at Mount Mary in order to use this system. You may initiate the process by completing the FAFSA and entering the Mount Mary school code 003869 so that Mount Mary will automatically receive a copy of your FAFSA.)

No summer school financial aid will be awarded after your summer session classes have ended. Funds disbursed for summer may impact your fall/spring aid.

Contact the Financial Aid & Veteran's Services Office with any questions regarding summer session financial aid.

• To be eligible to occupy the Mount Mary University residence hall during the summer period, the resident must be a continuing degree seeking student enrolled at Mount Mary University.
