Intersession Term Processing Reminders: Winter Session, Maymester and Augmester
It is important that faculty, advisors and students are aware of how student enrollments in CU Boulder’s intersessions are assigned and handled in term processing.
As a reminder, intersessions use the following term assignments:
- Winter Session: Spring Semester
- Maymester: Summer Session
- Augmester: Summer Session
For example, Winter Session is officially part of Spring Semester at CU Boulder. Registration for Winter Session classes occurs along with enrollment for other spring classes, tuition is billed as part of Spring Semester, student enrollments are reported in Spring Semester counts and financial aid is packaged as part of Spring Semester awards, if applicable. This also means that seniors planning to graduate in December must complete all requirements by the close of Fall Semester. Winter Session credits do not count toward fall graduation. Both Maymester and Augmester are part of Summer Session and therefore, enrollments in these intersessions are treated and reported accordingly.
Exceptions will not be made to how these enrollments are handled in term business processes or toward degree eligibility. We appreciate your help advising students accordingly!
