New Academic Calendar Structure

The academic calendar will shift to offer 14 week semesters in 2025. This is intended to allow for more consistency between Fall, Spring and Summer semesters. It will also allow the addition of a mid-semester break in the Fall, matching the structure of the Spring semester, giving the ability to split each semester into two 7 week terms. If you currently teach in a 15 week format, you will want to change your course to 14 weeks so that student learning is maximized. Courses in an 8 week format will also shift to a 7 week format. Faculty may consult the Adjustments to the Duration of Academic Semesters Presentation to explore additional details.
