  • Students must register in the summer to maintain full-time student status if they are receiving Academic Employment, such as a Graduate Research Assistantship (GRA) or Teaching Assistantship (TA). Summer registration for all students may be whole session or either half session. If the student has academic employment (e.g. GRA) and would like to register for a second-session course, the student should still register during the spring registration period. The student should also contact the Graduate Program Coordinator who can contact the appropriate sources in the graduate school so that the student is not penalized or unable to be appointed.
  • Students must register in the summer to maintain full-time student status if they are receiving a fellowship. Summer registration for all students may be whole session or either half session. If the student has a fellowship and would like to register for a second-session course, the student should still register during the spring registration period. The student should also contact the Graduate Program Coordinator who can contact the appropriate sources in the graduate school so that the student is not penalized. A student must be registered for fellowship money to be dispersed; if the student waits until the second session to register, their fellowship will not be dispersed until the second session registration is complete.
  • If a student is going on a department-approved internship and they will not have academic employment during the internship, they do not have to register for summer tuition. 
    • International students must officially complete the CPT process; instructions are available on the internship link
    • A student will still be eligible for student health insurance even if they are not enrolled during the summer. International students will be audited at the beginning of June for health insurance. If an international student is no longer eligible for employee insurance, the student health insurance plan will automatically be added to the spring tuition bill.
    • While domestic students are not required to purchase student health insurance, they are allowed to do so. More information about health insurance as a student is available through University Health Services. (Scroll down to "other helpful information.")
  • Continuous registration in dissertation hours is not required for summer session, only long semesters. 
  • If a student registers for more than 3 total hours during the summer, they are responsible for tuition costs. 

Continuous Registration

If the student has been admitted to candidacy for a doctoral degree, registration in the dissertation course, CHE *99W, must be registered for continuously during the spring and fall semesters until the degree is completed. A minimum of 3 dissertation credits are required each long semester (fall and spring). The student may register for courses in addition to dissertation credits. For example, a third-year student who has entered candidacy might register for CHE 399W Dissertation, CHE 185 Seminar, CHE 285 Research, and CHE 398T Supervised Teaching. 

Auto-registration for Dissertation Credits

Once you register for a full course load (9 credits) in the fall or summer for only dissertation, you will be automatically enrolled for 9 credits of dissertation for long semesters in the future. It's a safety feature so you don't accidentally forget to register the semester you plan to graduate. (Only works for long semesters though.) 

Often, students who graduate are auto-registered for dissertation credits for the following long semester. To cancel your registration: https://utdirect.utexas.edu/apps/reg/registration/cancel/
