The Office of the Registrar maintains Ithaca College's academic calendar for every fall/spring semester and winter/spring sessions. Please review the calendar carefully to find important dates, including the first day of class or the last day to drop or withdraw from a class for example. Also please review the Office of Extended Studies (OES) calendar below for specific non-degree student dates. It is the responsibility of each non-degree seeking student to be aware of both calendars. If you have any questions regarding dates and deadlines, please reach out to us at oes@ithaca.edu
