The winter session runs from Dec. 17 through Jan. 18. Students who attend any college, including the 14 universities in Pennsylvania’s State System of Higher Education, may register for the 100 percent online classes offered during the break between the fall and spring semesters. 

Cal U’s Winter College offers 27 undergraduate and 29 graduate courses.  A complete list is available here, along with information about tuition and fees, financial aid, library services and technology support. 

“Because Winter College courses are 100 percent online, they are especially convenient for students who may be busy with work or family obligations between the fall and spring semesters,” said Dr. Bruce Barnhart, Cal U’s provost and senior vice president for Academic Affairs. 

Kathy Gavazzi, director of the Summer College and Winter College programs at Cal U, emphasized that Winter College helps students reach their academic goals faster and maximize their education. 

“Winter College can help some students to finish a minor, or even a second major, and still graduate on time,” Gavazzi said. “Other students use the winter session to focus on a single course, or to take a class in a subject they’ve always wanted to learn more about."
