Summer Start is a residential program designed to assist new first-year and transfer students with the transition to our campus through five weeks of NC State courses and involvement opportunities. Students will be enrolled in up to eight credit hours of courses.

Summer Start takes place during the second summer session. The application closes in early May, but spots are limited and filled on a first come, first served basis. Financial aid may be available to assist with tuition, dining, and/or housing expenses and is awarded based on information submitted on the FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid).
