Typically, our fall semesters run 14 weeks and 2 days, starting on a Tuesday and ending on a Wednesday. There's typically one Thursday off and one Friday off for Thanksgiving. So there are typically 14 Mondays, 15 Tuesdays, 15 Wednesdays, 13 Thursdays and 13 Fridays. (Note: The Wednesday before Thanksgiving is traditionally not well attended in regular college courses, but, in this program, we will expect attendance.)

Typically, our spring semesters run 15 weeks and 4 days, starting on a Tuesday and ending on a Friday. There's typically one week off for spring break. So there are typically 14 Mondays, 15 Tuesdays, 15 Wednesdays, 15 Thursdays and 15 Fridays.
