Calendar
Division Assignment
The standard and most popular Bachelor of Science program spans five years and integrates three six-month cooperative education periods. The university's calendar is comprised of two 15-week semesters (Fall & Spring) and two 7.5-week summer terms. A student's division, assigned during summer orientation, defines the school and co-op periods. The chemical and industrial engineering majors are split 50/50 between Division A and Division B. The other engineering majors are split 50/50 between Division A and Division N. The division B and N calendars differ only in the timing of a Summer II break.
Tuition
You only pay tuition while you are in classes (8 semesters). You do not pay tuition during co-op periods. However, you’re still considered a full-time student and may continue to pay room and board to live in your residence hall while you’re on co-op . You may also participate in student organizations, and you continue to have access to all campus resources.
