Academic Calendar

All drop/withdrawal deadlines listed on the fall and spring Academic and Semester Calendars are based on a regular 16-week term.  If your class is scheduled in a session that is less than 16 weeks, the deadlines are prorated. Check the calendar on your student center for the prorated drop/withdrawal deadline dates.

All dates are subject to change without notice. The University Registrar's Office publishes a more detailed calendar in Adobe PDF format.
