When searching for classes in "Browse Classes" or "Register for Classes" (login required) you can use the Advanced Search to limit your options to courses that are taught for a specifc part of term.
WHAT IS A 'PART OF TERM'?
The full fall or winter semester runs approximately 16 weeks plus final exams. Some classes meet for shorter timeframes - especially in the spring or summer where classes start in May and end in July (first half, or H1) or start in July and run through August (second half, or H2).
"Part of Term" refers to the different timeframes in which a class is being held. By changing the start and end dates of a class other important dates, such as deadlines for tuition cancellation and withdrawing from a class, are modified in proportion to the number of weeks the class is held.
