Academic Calendar 2025-2026
The following academic calendar includes deadlines for the academic year as determined by full-term classes meeting from the first day through final exams.
Parts of term/adjusted deadlines: Some classes may meet for shorter parts of term and their deadlines are adjusted accordingly. Deadlines for these class sections are available in the class details panel of the schedule of classes.
Religious holidays: Because of the extraordinary variety of religious affiliations of the University student body and staff, the Academic Calendar makes no provisions for religious holidays. However, it is University policy to respect the faith and religious obligations of the individual. Students with classes or examinations that conflict with their religious observances are expected to notify their instructors well in advance so that mutually agreeable alternatives may be worked out.
