Winter Session registration begins Oct. 23

Registration for the third year of Winter Session at the University of Maine begins Oct. 23.

The session, which runs Dec. 27, 2017 through Jan. 16, 2018, will feature 30 online courses, including a number of high-demand classes that fulfill general education requirements, as well as some 300- and 400-level options.

Winter Session continues to grow and has become an integral part of UMaine and Think 30. Think 30 is a campuswide initiative that encourages students to take 30 credits per year to graduate in four years and reduce student loan debt. Year-round online courses, Summer University and Winter Session are opportunities to help students stay on track. Winter Session is an opportunity to complete a full three-credit course in three weeks.

Last year, over 900 students completed a Winter Session course — a nearly 40 percent increase over 2015.
