Some courses meet for period which do no correspond to the three standard summer sessions and therefore have modified add, drop, and tuition liability dates proportional to their length. Part-of-Term codes are assigned to courses with non-standard start and end dates. The part-of term code for non-standard courses will be listed in the section notes on Patriot Web. If you register for a course that meets less than the full semester, refer to the chart below for add/drop deadlines.
