Fall, Spring, and Summer

The University of Mississippi academic calendar runs on a semester system with fall and spring semesters spanning 16 weeks each. We also offer intersession and summer sessions with varying start and end dates.

Our calendar includes important dates such as registration deadlines, holidays, and final-exam periods. Calendar dates are subject to change, so it’s good to confirm before finalizing your plans.
