1 A pre-payment is not required prior to registration. However, students with a past‐due balance of $1,000 or more ($200 or more starting November 2, 2015) will not be allowed to register until an appropriate payment has been made to the Bursar's Office.
2 Classes scheduled during the Winter Intersession count as a part of the Spring semester for credit hours and time status, GPA and Deans List, tuition and fee assessment, and financial aid calculation purposes.
3 Students first registering for full-term classes after the advance registration period has ended will be assessed a $15 late registration fee, as will students first registering for shorter-than-full-term classes after the first day of the course. The fee is non-refundable and non-waivable unless it can be clearly shown that faculty or administrative action caused the late registration. (Off-campus classes and registration in courses 599, 600, 601, and 699 are exempt from this fee.)
4 Course adds or section changes for shorter-than-full-term classes that start during the first week of the term are subject to this same deadline. Course adds or section changes for shorter-than-full-term classes that start before or after the first week of the term may be done through the first day of the class (Dean's signature is required after the first day of the class).
5 Effective Spring 2015, to better comply with federal regulations that concern the return of Title IV aid funds, students who withdraw from the University after the term starts but during the full refund period will have displayed on their transcript their attempted courses with W grades.
6 Students enrolled in courses that are shorter-than-full-term should refer to the drop deadline chart in their catalog (e.g., page 27 of the 2015-2016 Undergraduate Catalog or page 19 of the 2015-2016 Graduate Catalog), since the full refund date and the last date to drop will vary depending on the start date and length of the course.
7 Effective Summer 2013, students may not drop or withdraw from a full-term course after Week 10 (Week 5 in Summer Session). Students enrolled in courses that are shorter-than-full-term should refer to the drop deadline chart in their catalog, since the full refund date and the last date to drop will vary depending on the start date and length of the course.
8 Students who withdraw from the University after the full refund period will have displayed on their transcript their attempted courses with W grades.
9 Final exams (except for the School of Law) are held the last week of the term according to this schedule.
10 The School of Law has a calendar that differs slightly from what is noted above. Specifically, their Final Exams last for two weeks and start the week before those noted above. For more details, please refer to their semester calendar.
11 Commencement for the School of Law will be held on Friday, May 13.
