You can easily identify courses that have been completed and what courses are still needed in order to fulfill your degree requirements.

We highly recommend using the schedule planner to create a personalized class schedule just for you!

Important Dates and Deadlines
Dates and deadlines will vary based on the summer term(s) you are registered and can be found in the Summer Academic Calendar. Find out more information regarding some of the important dates and deadlines below.
Payment Deadline
In order to secure your classes, you must pay your Tuition and Fees by the term’s payment deadline. Check your payment deadline date and then log into Rowdy Pay via your myUTSA Account to make arrangements.
Note: Payment arrangements must be made no later than census date (5 p.mm. CT). Students who do not make payment arrangements by their term’s census date will lose your classes.
Tuition and Fee Refund from Withdrawing
If you decide to not attend the summer term you are registered for, you will need to withdraw from all classes within the term before the first day of class for a 100% tuition and fee refund. The refund amount starts to decrease the first day of class.
Note: You must complete the withdrawal process with the One Stop Enrollment Center.
Example Scenario:
Joe is registered for 6 credit hours in the F term. He decides to no longer take classes in the F term and will instead take 6 credit hours in the S term. Joe reviews the Summer Academic Calendar and determines he must withdraw from the F term at One Stop before the first day of class to receive 100% tuition and fee refund for the course. If he withdraws on the first day or afterwards, he will receive a tuition and fee refund of 80%.
Census Date
Census date (5 p.m. CT) marks official enrollment for the summer term.
- If you are registered for more than one class within the term, it’s the last day to individually drop a class and receive a 100% tuition and fee refund.
Note: If you withdrawal from every course in your summer term, the refund will be in accordance with the Withdrawal Tuition and Fee Refund. - It’s the last day to drop or withdraw from a course without a grade being reported on your transcript.
Drop Course Deadline
This is the last day you can drop an individual course for the summer term and receive an automatic “W” for the grade.
Note: You must see your advisor to drop a developmental course.
Withdrawal Deadline
This is the last day to withdraw from all classes in the summer term. A grade of “W” will automatically be given for each course.
Note: You must complete the withdrawal process with the One Stop Enrollment Center.
Grades Available on your myUTSA Account
You will not be able to see any summer grades on your myUTSA Account until mid August regardless of which summer term you attended. Please check Canvas or with your professor for individual grades. Transcripts will be updated with grades once the final summer session has ended.
