Important: With the changes to this term, we’ve made some changes to the academic calendar and enrollment cancellation process. The last date to withdraw without a grade penalty for 16, 14, 12, 10 and second 8 week classes has been shifted to May 10 (for NOVA Online classes that end before this date, the last day to withdraw without a grade penalty will be the day before the end of the session). And there will be no enrollment cancellations. The Census Dates (the last day to drop with a tuition refund) for all class have not been changed.
