Save time and money with free summer classes!

The Summer Momentum Plan (SMP) makes it easier than ever to advance your education over the summer by covering required tuition and fees for 3 to 9 credit hours. 
 
The free credits can be applied to any Summer 2025 semester term and must be used for courses that are part of your degree plan or certificate program. After all other financial aid resources have been applied, SMP credits will automatically be applied to eligible students' accounts.
