Summer and Winter Semesters

About Summer and Winter Semesters

The summer and winter semesters give you the opportunity to complete units outside of the standard semesters.

The teaching period is usually much shorter and more intense than in a standard semester, but the total number of contact hours remains the same. For example, instead of three hours of class per week for 12 weeks, you may attend all-day classes for a week. This may vary depending on the units.

In addition, summer and winter units have different start and end dates. This means that the dates for enrollment, as well as for teaching, assessment, and academic and financial penalties, are unique to each unit.

Dates and Enrollment for Summer and Winter Semesters

You may refer to the Enrolment dates for the summer, winter, October and November webpage for more information.

The summer semester begins at the end of the year at Monash, whereas the winter semester commences mid-year. The principal dates for the summer semester are the same across all Monash campuses.

During the re-enrollment period, you are not able to enrol in units for the winter and summer semesters.

You will not be able to enrol in the Web Enrolment System (WES) if you have not completed the prerequisite requirements. If you try to enrol, you will receive an error message.

If the units are already open for enrollment and you meet the prerequisites but you are not able to enrol on WES, complete the Enrolment Amendment Form and we will help you complete your enrollment process.

The units have a limited enrollment capacity and are available on a first-come, first-served basis.
