Summer Sessions (Summer 2026)

Taking summer classes at Massasoit can have numerous benefits, especially if you’re looking to save money and time. We offer a range of courses across three different sessions.

Additional Information

  • Cost-effective: Massasoit’s courses are typically at a lower cost than most four-year institutions, which can help you save money on tuition and other expenses.
  • Faster completion of prerequisites: You can use the summer to take classes that are prerequisites for your major, or general electives, freeing up your schedules during the regular academic year to focus on more advanced coursework.
  • Flexibility: Massasoit offers classes on campus and online, making it easier for students to balance their work, family, and other commitments.
  • Transferable credits: Many of our courses are transferable to four-year institutions, which means you can earn credits towards your degree while still enjoying your summer break.
  • Smaller class sizes: Massasoit’s classes are smaller in size. With a faculty to student ratio of 17:1, you can have more one-on-one attention from professors, and a better chance to participate in class discussions.

Choose the session that fits your schedule.

Summer Session – May 26 – August 11, 2026
Summer Session I – May 26 – July 1, 2026
Summer Session II – July 6 – August 11, 2026

Transcripts are available August 18 and degrees are conferred on August 22.

Dozens of courses across many subjects are taught throughout the summer. Courses are published in the Spring on our Course Search. 

Most students will qualify for financial aid!

The first step is to complete your FAFSA – the earlier the better to make sure you’re ready to go at the start of summer.
