Below you will find the standard class times and days for fall / spring and summer semesters. Deviations from standard class times and days require the approval of the appropriate dean and the Office of Academic Affairs.
In order to honor unique aspects of various campuses, some of the times listed may be restricted (to or from) scheduling on a given campus. For example, if there is only one section of a course in Dahlonega, the course needs to be scheduled so that it does not conflict with the Corps of Cadets drill time on Monday from 3:30 p.m. – 5:00 p.m.
Deviations from standard class times and days require the approval of the appropriate dean and the Office of Academic Affairs.
Two and four semester hour courses should be scheduled so that start times match the start time of one of the periods provided above. 750 minutes of instructional time (including the two-hour final) are required per semester credit hour. Class times should be at least 50 minutes and, if more than 100 minutes, should include a break.
*One-day a week classes meet 160 minutes with a break of approximately 10 minutes during the scheduled class time.
