Semester Kickoff
Start Your Semester Right
A strong semester starts with the first few weeks. Stay ahead of important deadlines, find events and resources, and know what’s coming up so you can start strong, stay on track, and keep moving toward graduation on time. Everything you need for the first month of the semester is right here.
Stay on Track
Need a Schedule Change? Act Early
The best time to add or drop a class is during the first week of the semester. During the second week, adding a class requires professor approval. After the second week, dropping classes may affect your financial aid and tuition liability. Don’t wait—connect with your advisor to make sure your courses keep you on track academically and financially.
