Academic Calendar

Special note for Undergraduate summer courses: Undergraduate summer courses have varying session starts and lengths. These courses can be dropped/added up until three days into the start of the course. After that time, withdrawal is an option up until the course is 60% complete. There are no refunds for withdrawals, and withdrawals are considered attempted credit. Once the course is more than 60% complete, students must remain in the course and will be assigned a grade. To add/drop or withdraw from a summer course, or if you have questions, please contact registrar@cune.edu.
