The Schedule of Classes and enrollment appointments for Spring 2022 will tentatively be released the week of October 18.

Students new to UNI beginning with the Spring 2022 term will register during orientation.

December 16 - January 14

The general rule is one credit hour per week of class time. In most cases, this means students can enroll in one course during the winter session.

Meeting patterns will depend on the class. Students should review the meeting pattern and notes within the course details when selecting winter classes. Due to the compressed timeframe, students should expect these classes to be more rigorous and demanding.

Yes. Winter classes must meet minimum enrollment requirements. Students will be notified if classes fail to meet minimum enrollments.

A student may register for a maximum number of units in a semester without permission based upon undergraduate/graduate status or academic standing (on alert or probation standing).  Find more information about the student load policy in Academic Program: Student Load in the UNI Catalog. If you wish to enroll above this maximum through your combination of winter plus regular spring units, you will need to submit a Student Request Form for approval to register for an overload. Students should talk with their advisor about course overload plans.

Winter classes will be considered part of your Spring 2022 schedule and count toward the spring tuition rate. For undergraduate students, tuition and fees are charged up to 12 units. For graduate students, tuition and fees are charged up to 9 units.

For example, if an undergraduate student takes 3 credit hours of winter classes, and an additional 10 credit hours in the spring term, the maximum of 12 credit hours would still be billed at the full-time tuition level. 

Winter classes will be billed with the Spring 2022 term. U-bills will be generated on 1/3/2022 and will be due on 1/20/2022.

Yes. Financial aid will be disbursed Monday, January 10, which is prior to the first u-bill due date for the spring term.
