        <p>The University at Albany’s Wintersession is a four-week term offered each year between the end of the fall semester and the beginning of the spring semester. Wintersession is comprised primarily of online courses.</p>
        <h4>Admission/Registration Information</h4>
        <p>The Wintersession term is available to UAlbany graduate and undergraduate students, students visiting from other colleges, General Studies’ students, and qualified high school seniors.  </p>
        <p>Registration for Wintersession begins in October with the spring term advance registration period and runs until the start of winter classes. Current UAlbany students wishing to register should obtain a separate winter term AVN from their academic advisor and enroll online at their designated appointment time. All other undergraduate students must apply through the Office of General Studies and Summer Sessions via the printable application on the Wintersession website, <a href="http://www.albany.edu/winter">www.albany.edu/winter</a>. </p>
        <p>Newly admitted freshmen or transfer students due to begin at UAlbany in the spring term are not eligible to register for Wintersession. All new UAlbany students must begin classes with the spring semester.</p>

        <h4>Policies Pertaining to Online Classes</h4>
        </h4>
        <p>The University at Albany offers a variety of online classes during Wintersession. All academic regulations and policies apply equally to online courses. </p>
        <p>UAlbany courses are offered in the online format via Blackboard Learning System.

        <p>All drop deadlines, including those involving tuition liability, apply to online courses. Students wishing to drop their online class must drop via MyUAlbany within the stated deadlines for the term. Nonattendance (not signing into the class) does not constitute a drop.  </p>
