Please note that some courses are not open to pre-college students, so be sure to check the individual course descriptions for any restrictions. </p><p>Once admitted to a course or program, you will be officially enrolled in Yale Summer Session. If you decide not to attend after admission, you must withdraw by completing the online withdrawal form. </p><p>Full-time study for pre-college students requires enrollment in two courses (totaling 2 credits) per session, which is also the maximum allowed. Pre-college students living on campus must take two courses to maintain full-time status. At least one course must be in-person so you may take two in-person courses or one in-person course and one online course in the same session.</p><h3>What kind of transcript do I submit?</h3><p>An unofficial transcript or academic record in English is required as part of your application to Yale Summer Session. The online application enables you to upload an unofficial copy of your academic transcript.</p><p>Pre-College students submit your high school transcript.</p><blockquote><p>All academic transcripts must show the name of the institution, dates of enrollment, and the subjects or courses taken, together with the units of credit or time allotted to each subject and the final grade.</p></blockquote><p>Applications are evaluated holistically, therefore, we do not have a G.P.A. requirement. </p><h2>For In-person Study: Insurance, Vaccinations, and Required Forms</h2><h3>Required Health Insurance</h3><p>You are required to be enrolled in U.S. based health insurance for the duration of the session. Students coming to study in-person from abroad should review the visiting international student page for information about the Yale Summer Session insurance for international students. </p><p><a class="btn" href="/admitted-students/health-and-safety" data-entity-type="node" data-entity-uuid="ec3c3c71-032e-49ca-860e-e82d52b1adf8" data-entity-substitution="canonical" title="Health and Safety ">Health Insurance</a></p><h3>Required Vaccination and Immunization Records</h3><p>After admission, you will be required to upload proof of vaccinations if you will be attending classes in-person or living on campus. After admission, you will be emailed a link and information about where to upload your vaccination records (this process is managed by another office at Yale). </p><p><a class="btn" href="/admitted-students/immunization-requirements" data-entity-type="node" data-entity-uuid="b1f193ee-5f08-441d-ae84-c7b6bd1c5c50" data-entity-substitution="canonical" title="Immunization Requirements">Immunization</a></p><blockquote><p>[link] Review all <a href="/admitted-students/immunization-requirements" target="_blank" data-entity-type="node" data-entity-uuid="b1f193ee-5f08-441d-ae84-c7b6bd1c5c50" data-entity-substitution="canonical" title="Immunization Requirements">vaccination information and the relevant deadlines</a> to submit your information and be verified so that you can successfully attend Summer Session in-person. Any delay in providing this information may cause you to have to withdraw from Yale Summer Session if you cannot be verified in time. </p></blockquote><h3>Required Forms for Minors Living on Campus</h3><p>Minors residing on campus as part of the Yale Summer Session must submit five required forms with their application. These forms must be printed, signed by a parent or guardian, and uploaded to the application portal. </p><p><a href="/sites/default/files/uploaded-files/Minors%20Forms%2025/2025-authorization-for-medical-care.pdf" target="_blank">Authorization for Medical Care</a></p><p><a href="/sites/default/files/uploaded-files/Minors%20Forms%2025/2025-permission-to-use-images-and-recordings.pdf" target="_blank">Permission to Use Images and Recordings</a></p><p><a href="/sites/default/files/uploaded-files/Minors%20Forms%2025/yale-summer-session-release-form-for-minors.pdf" target="_blank">Yale Summer Session Release Form for Minors</a></p><p><a href="https://summer.yale.edu/sites/default/files/uploaded-files/Minors%20Forms%2025/2025-residential-program-rules-acknowledgement-final.pdf" target="_blank">Residential Program Rules Acknowledgement</a></p><p><a href="https://summer.yale.edu/sites/default/files/uploaded-files/Minors%20Forms%2025/online-learning-and-electronic-communication-form.pdf" target="_blank">Online Learning and Electronic Communication Form</a></p><p>Minor students who are living on campus and participating in the Yale Young Writers' Workshop must also fill out a <a href="/sites/default/files/uploaded-files/Minors%20Forms%2025/yywwprogram_participant_medical_form_1.16.14_0-4.pdf" target="_blank">Health Exam Form</a> in lieu of immunization records.</p><blockquote><p>[point] Your application will not be considered complete unless all forms are properly signed and submitted.</p></blockquote><h2>Residential Information for Pre-College Students</h2><p>If you're a pre-college student, including a recent high school graduate, you'll be required to live on campus if you're taking in-person courses, unless you live with your family within commuting distance of New Haven. If you're enrolled in only online courses, you鈥檙e not required to live on campus. Students living on campus must enroll in two courses per session.</p><p>You are expected to remain on campus overnight, except when participating in Yale Summer Session activities or with written permission from your parent or guardian to leave for a specified period. Yale undergraduates serve as residential counselors to provide support and assistance. If you're under the age of 18, you'll live in the same residential college and follow a curfew along with other special regulations. If you're 18 or older, you鈥檒l be housed separately.</p><h2>For International Pr鈥媏-College Students</h2><p>If you are an international high school student joining us from outside of the U.S., visit our
