Enrolling in Summer Courses

Enrolling in summer courses at another institution will require more steps to ensure a seamless transition. Please ensure you understand the following:

  • There is a separate financial aid process for summer courses. Contact the Financial Aid office at the institution you plan on taking summer courses through to ensure you meet their deadlines. 
  • Course numbers will be different at other institutions. Use the transfer course equivalency guide to verify how courses will transfer to TXST.
  • Once you finish the classes, you must have a copy of your transcript sent to Texas State so that credit can be applied to your degree.

Your First-Year Advisor will provide you with initial guidance. Still, we highly recommend you contact an admissions representative from your summer institution for further guidance on their application and enrollment process.
