High school students who have completed their sophomore year with a cumulative grade point average of 3.5 or better on a 4.0 system, may, with written recommendation and grade verification from their high school counselor or principal, enroll as a visiting student during the summer and be eligible to receive college credit. Approved high school students may register for introductory courses (100 or 200 level) for which they have the proper preparation and prerequisites. Students who are visiting from other colleges or universities may also apply. To take courses this summer, students must fill out the online Summer Visiting Undergraduate Application. For more information, visit summer.slu.edu.

Continuing Education In the Jesuit tradition, education at Saint Louis University does not end once a diploma is in hand. SLU alumni and community members are called to pursue lives of “continuing education,” whether in individual career fields, family experiences, community engagement and service, or academic studies and research. Saint Louis University is dedicated to providing such opportunities for continuing education, specifically in the classroom, lab and field settings. We offer full degree programs, short-term credit and non-credit certificates, and continuing education units. Courses range in length from one day to a full semester, and may include on-campus coursework, distance learning and hybrid technologies.
