Summer Session Savings

Students enrolled in BGSU Summer Session undergraduate courses through main campus and BGSU Online can save up to $225 when they enroll in more than three credit hours.

Eligible students will receive the following discount based on the number of summer credit hours enrolled in:

  • 3 credits or less = $0 discount
  • 4 credits = $75 discount
  • 5 credits = $150 discount
  • 6 credits or more: $225 discount

Please note: If a student is originally enrolled in more than three hours and then drops a course, putting them below three credit hours, the discount will be reversed and it will be the responsibility of the student to pay the difference. Only credit hours that are earned between May 19, 2025, and Aug. 8, 2025, will count toward the Summer Session Savings promotion.
