*Please note that there are various lengths of classes and various start, midterm,
withdrawal, and finish dates for classes. Course sites will open 3 days prior to the
start of classes. Even though a course site may be open prior to the first day of
the course there is no expectation that students must begin working on course material.
Check class schedules for more specific information.
