The academic calendar is subject to change.

The University, in scheduling classes on religious holidays, intends that students observing those holidays be given ample opportunity to make up work. Faculty members who wish to observe religious holidays will arrange for another faculty member to meet with their classes or for cancelled classes to be rescheduled.

The calendars for the Schools of Law, Social Work, Medicine, and Dental Medicine are published separately and are distributed by those Schools.

Note: Classes will be held on the Veterans Day holiday.
