Academic Calendar Key Features

The calendar was created in consultation with the School Deans’ offices and registrars over the past three years
The calendar will be set and published for ten years to enhance academic and administrative planning.
These common calendars make it easier for students to contemplate and possibly take curricular offerings across the divisions.
Students will be subject to tuition separately for summer programs.
The start dates for semesters and the eight-week instructional periods are aligned. The non-compulsory summer terms continue to vary with fewer instructional patterns.
Although the start dates for the terms may affect current expectations, the common calendars are designed to minimize the adjustments that we all will have to make.
