The University of Maine at Fort Kent currently offers classes during two regular 15-week semesters (Fall and Spring) and one 15-week Summer Session. The Summer Semester includes 3-week sessions, 6-week sessions, 8-week sessions, and 12-week sessions. It also includes other sessions of varying length depending on specific course requirements.
Effective December 1, 2009, UMFK will offer courses in a 3-week session known as “Winter Term”. Classes will be offered to:
Although the “Winter Term” is considered a stand-alone session, with unique start and end dates, the record keeping is done within the regular Spring semester. “Winter Term” credit accounting, reporting, and processing (registration, billing, and financial aid) will be done within the Spring semester. “Winter Term” classes will be uniquely identified (term session field = “Win”) in the MaineStreet computer system. All other academic, student, and financial aid policies that apply to the regular Fall/Spring/Summer semesters also apply to the “Winter Term”.
