There’s still an opportunity to take classes this summer at Penn State York. The second six-week summer session begins Wednesday, June 28, and continues through Aug. 4. Summer classes offer students a chance to get ahead for fall, catch up on classes, or just get started.
It’s never too early to think about summer classes at Penn State York, as registration is underway now. Two six-week sessions offer students the opportunity to take day, evening or online classes. Some classes may also combine online with face-to-face instruction.
Penn State York is continuing to offer the Chancellor's Honor Certificate in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM), designed to provide students with the skills they need for jobs in the 21st century. Studies have shown that the demand for students with STEM degrees continues to grow. The certificate is designed for high school students taking part in the dual enrollment program.
Through dual enrollment, high school students can earn college credit while still in high school. A variety of courses are available at the campus for dual enrollment and courses toward the STEM certificate are included. High school juniors and seniors with a cumulative grade-point average of 3.0 and qualifying Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) scores are eligible to take part in the program.
