Continuing Student – Currently enrolled at WSSU – no application is necessary, simply consult with your advisor and register for summer courses. Additionally if you are a former WSSU student interested in returning the university to take courses you must pursue re-admission through the Office of the Registrar.

Visiting Student – During the summer sessions, students from other colleges and universities may be admitted as summer only students. As a summer only student you may take courses from May – July.  Winston-Salem State University assumes no responsibility for determining the student’s course selection when the credits are to be transferred to another institution.  

The university will accept applications for summer sessions from high school juniors and seniors who are above average in academic achievement and who have the formal endorsement and permission from their high school principal.
