Denoting key dates for the University’s undergraduate, graduate, and professional programs, the calendar enables effective planning and coordination. This summary outlines the academic calendar for UH Mānoa’s 2023-2024 academic year.
The calendar presents key dates for the University’s fall, spring, and summer semesters. It notes the beginning and end of terms, registration/enrollment periods, university closures for holidays, exam timelines, and deadlines for adding/dropping classes and applying for graduation.
