Winter Term: Registration for the Winter Term began in October. There is no obligation to register for a winter course (personally I think you all deserve a break!), but if you do, here are a few things to be aware of:
- One day in the Winter Term = One week in a normal semester: You only have 15 class sessions – so every day you’ve got reading and homework that you’d normally have a week to do. Manage your time (visiting family, part-time jobs, and schoolwork) carefully.
- Online does not mean “easy” : Many winter courses are online. Some online courses require you to be in front of a computer at specified times; others do not; and the balance of online and between-time assignments can vary between classes.
- Please contact course instructors in advance if you have questions. You can find their contact information on the UMD Directory.
- Finally : Payment for the Winter term is due immediately upon registration. Failure to pay gets you dropped from the class and from the University.
If you have an additional questions, reach out to an Advisor!
