There are several options for Barnard students who want or need to take classes this summer. Note, however, that financial aid does not tend to cover summer study, although students who receive financial aid during the academic year may be eligible for limited financial assistance for Barnard summer classes (option 1, below). Please come see your Sophomore Class Dean if you have any questions about what follows.
1. Barnard is offering classes this summer, in two summer sessions. They are now listed here and on Vergil.
When can I register for them?
Now! Please see the Summer Course site FAQs for details.
How can I register for them?
On Vergil.
How will I be billed?
Costs will be listed on the Summer website, and you will be billed by Barnard on a per-credit basis.
How will these courses be counted?
Summer courses will automatically appear on your Barnard transcript, just like classes taken during the year. Courses taken for a grade will factor into your Barnard GPA.
What if I need CARDS accommodations in summer?

Any other questions?
Email summersession@barnard.edu
2. As in past years, Columbia will be offering summer courses, which Barnard students may take.
When can I register for them?
Registration is now open for Columbia Summer courses.
How can I register for them?
On Vergil. Be sure to adhere to rules about summer transfer course registration, listed on the registrar's website
How will I be billed?
Columbia will bill you directly.
How will these courses get onto my transcript?
Note that Columbia summer courses are considered transfer credit, so in addition to registering, be sure to submit the Summer Course Approval Form. Once you complete the course(s), Columbia will automatically send transcripts to the Barnard Registrar. Columbia Summer courses will appear as transfer credits on your Barnard transcript and will not be factored into your Barnard GPA.
What if I need CARDS accommodations in summer?

3. You may also take courses at another accredited college or university and transfer them back to Barnard.
How do I get those approved?
Look for courses that adhere to the rules about summer transfer course registration. Register for them directly through the host university, and be sure to submit the Summer Course Approval Form and to request that a final, official transcript be sent directly to the Barnard Registrar when your courses are finished. External summer courses will appear as transfer credits on your Barnard transcript and will not be factored into your Barnard GPA.
How do I withdraw from a class (now that the drop deadline has passed)?
The deadline to withdraw from a spring 2025 class is Thursday, March 27. Withdrawn classes will not affect your GPA and you will not earn credit for them, but they will remain on your transcript, and a W will be entered place of the final grade.
Note: You may not withdraw from a class if doing so would leave you with fewer than 12 credits.
To withdraw from a class, use this online form, following these steps:
1. Consult with your adviser.
2. Get an email from your adviser confirming they approve you to withdraw from this specific class.
3. Download that email as a PDF or save a screenshot of it.
4. Complete and submit the online W form, uploading your adviser’s confirmation email when prompted to do so.
5. You will receive an email confirmation once your W request is processed, ordinarily within two business days.
Note that the W will not appear on your record until the end of the semester when final grades are entered.
Did you submit one of the online forms that are available via the Slate for Students website?
Wondering how to track its progress, i.e. to see if/when it was received, approved, processed, etc.?
Here's how to check.
1. Log into Slate directly or find it on the Barnard Portal under the Academics tab
