Academic dates and deadlines

Find important dates and deadlines for each semester, including registration periods, add/drop deadlines, academic breaks, final exams and commencement. Keeping track of these key dates helps ensure a smooth academic experience while you’re planning your course schedule, preparing for graduation or coordinating travel during breaks.

Dates in these calendars are subject to change without notice; dates appearing in admission and registration instructions take precedence over those listed below.

Deadlines listed below are for those classes lasting the specified duration; accelerated classes have accelerated deadlines.

Dates and deadlines for tuition, fees and refunds may be different than academic deadlines; see Student Accounts information for further details.

After the deadline listed below, any registration changes require an approved academic petition. This also applies to changes for past semesters. Students should contact their Dean’s Office for guidance on the petition process. See Registration Instructions or go directly to the help section for Registration (Add and Waitlist), Drop/Withdraw, Variable Credit, Audit, Pass/Fail or Faculty Override.
