Winter Session registration begins Oct. 22

University of Maine’s Winter Session will run Dec. 27, 2018 through Jan. 16, 2019. Registration begins Oct. 22.

The 35 available online courses will include several high-demand classes that fulfill general education requirements as well as a few 300- and 400-level options. Winter Session courses are intensive in nature, with students earning three credits in three weeks.

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.

Last year, more than 1,200 students completed a Winter Session course, up 27 percent over last year and 72 percent higher over the first year. Now in its fourth year, Winter Session offers students 35 online courses to choose from.
