The start day for the self-paced term is the first day of the regular term and extends for 19 weeks in the fall and spring terms. The session will end on the Friday prior to the start of the next term. During Fall and Spring terms, students will be able to add a self-paced course up to 9 weeks into the term. Students cannot register for a self-paced course with less than 10 weeks to complete. Refund and academic withdrawal dates will be based upon the full 19-week session. Offerings will be 10 weeks long in the summer.
Each student is in their own section of the course. Instructors can view the student’s start/end dates in multiple places and the formatting shows the course SIS followed by the start date, end date and student SSO.
