More information on Summer Session tuition and fees can be found at https://summer-sessions.ucdavis.edu/courses/specialsessions. Students may be eligible for financial aid for summer tuition. To receive summer financial aid, students must enroll in at least 6 units total during the summer. Students can, therefore, enroll in 2 additional field research units under ANT 198 (in addition to the 4 units of the ANT 181L field course). Note that financial aid can only be used to cover the course and campus fees but not the other field-related fees. Please consult with the ANT advising office to discuss this further. More information on financial aid can be found here.

Tuition for summer sessions field courses is NOT REFUNDABLE. You will be billed and remain liable for fees even if you withdraw or cancel your enrollment in Summer Sessions Field School.
