Academic Calendar 2022 - 2023

We are excited to share, through a successful collaboration between students, faculty, staff, and administrators, beginning with the 2022-2023 academic year, the academic calendar has been modified to better meet educational needs and support the university’s academic mission, while ensuring federal and state compliance. You can learn more about the calendar changes and view a list of frequently asked questions (FAQs) on the Changes to the Academic Calendar webpage.

The updated academic calendar is based on a semester model that contains new subterms in fall and spring semesters.

• Fall Semester has two designated subterms:
  • "Fall Term" (formerly known as the "Fall Long Semester") is the primary subterm for Fall Semester classes 
  • "Winter Term" is an optional period to offer education abroad courses, internships, etc.
• Spring Semester has two designated subterms:
  • "Spring Term" (formerly known as "Spring Long Semester") is the primary subterm for Spring Semester classes
  • "May Term" is an optional four-week period for education abroad courses, internships, etc.
• Summer Semester has four designated subterms:
  • First Term
  • Second Term
  • Nine-Week Term
  • "Summer Term"

There will be a small number of classes that will receive permission to start or end at a non-standard time. However, all classes associated with a semester will start and end within that semester. Tuition calculations, financial aid, and registration processes are based on classes taken during the assigned semester.

Please make sure to check the course schedule for individual course start and end dates.
