Dates are important to the success of any student. Below you can find all the dates for the current academic year. However, if you're a planner, you might be interested in the upcoming academic year. Well you're in luck.
We publish this calendar as well as the upcoming academic year's dates in the university catalog. Remember that the upcoming academic year's calendar is tentative, and dates are not guaranteed from being changed, but you should find a good indication of the dates for the upcoming academic year. The final calendar for the academic year is published alongside the catalog in early summer, and this calendar will be updated as well.
