May Term courses are designed to be innovative, hands-on learning experiences for students and are not offered during any other term. May Term allows faculty to design courses that they could not otherwise offer, and it allows students to take a least one course simply for the sake of the love of learning during their time at Morningside. Travel may be a significant component of some courses offered in the May Term. All students are required to complete at least one May Term course in order to graduate from Morningside College.

May Term courses are offered in an approximately three-week period immediately after Commencement.  All May Term courses are four-credit courses and classes may meet for a variable amount of time each day. Students who are enrolled in the preceding Spring Term may enroll in one May Term course for no tuition. For the one required May Term, there are no additional charges for rooms if the student is already living in a campus residence hall. For additional May Terms the student will be responsible for tuition and room charges. Students are responsible for their board costs during the May Term.  If a May Term involves travel, students are responsible for the cost of the travel.
