Fall 2025 Registration FAQs

I am eligible for ACC Free Tuition. Can I take summer courses with my free tuition exemption?

It depends on when you graduate high school or complete your TX GED®. All free tuition-eligible students can start using their free tuition exemption the fall semester after receiving a high school diploma/equivalency. So, if you are from the 2024 high school graduating class, your ACC Free Tuition will apply to summer courses!

Can I receive financial aid for summer courses?

Yes, full financial aid benefits can be applied during the summer semesters. Grants from your FAFSA application, scholarships, and federal aid are all available and may be used to help pay for your summer semester.

Are there fewer college classes available during the summer?

With over 100 unique program areas offering a variety of flexible summer classes, ACC provides the same diverse course offerings for any student looking to get ahead and learn something new this summer. Visit ACC’s Summer Course Schedule to get a better idea of what classes you can take.

Can I take summer classes at ACC if I am enrolled in a different college/university?

Yes! In fact, taking summer classes at a community college is one of the best ways to get ahead on your degree plan, catch up with short and flexible courses, and accomplish more than ever during the fun summer months. Be sure to complete the application process if you’ve never attended ACC before.

Will my ACC credits transfer to my university?

Most courses easily transfer to the top universities across Texas, but credit transfer will vary by university. Learn more about ACC’s University Transfer program and how to plan your transfer with course equivalencies broken down by college.

What is the difference between summer classes and classes during the fall or spring?

Flexible course formats are a major plus for summer classes, with 5-, 9-, or 10-week courses that fit into your summer schedule. These classes are quicker and more efficient than longer courses in the spring or fall, while offering the same valuable credit hours and opportunities for hands-on learning that set ACC apart.

Why should I take summer classes?

Summer classes provide the biggest benefit to students wanting to get ahead of their degree plan, catch up on necessary courses, and even graduate earlier. Flexible course formats ensure that you can accomplish more this summer while still enjoying the break between your spring and fall semesters.

Will these classes last for the entire summer?

ACC’s summer semester allows you to schedule classes at your own pace by providing 5-, 9-, and 10-week options that ensure you can accomplish more while making time to enjoy the summer break.
