These are the registrar’s dates for NJIT. If you are registered at NYU, use the NYU calendar instead, because the two terms start on different days and break in different weeks.

Term

Conversion days

Two dates run somebody else’s schedule, and both are easy to miss because the day of the week says otherwise. Tuesday September 8 runs a Monday schedule, which returns the Monday lost to Labor Day. If you have a Monday class it meets that day; if you have a Tuesday class it does not. Wednesday November 25 runs a Friday schedule, ahead of the Thanksgiving recess. Friday classes meet, Wednesday classes do not. The effect is that every schedule-day ends the term with the same number of meetings. Counting the conversions, and the extra Friday on December 11 and Saturday on December 12, each of Monday through Saturday holds 14 class meetings.

Registration deadlines

The add/drop deadline is a week after classes begin, so decide early. The withdrawal deadline sits in November, well after the midterm.

Refund schedule

The refund you receive depends on when you withdraw, and the percentage drops in four steps.

Final examinations

Two reading days separate the last class from the first exam.

Week by week

Weeks run Monday to Sunday. Week 1 is short, since the term opens on a Tuesday. Your course’s weekly study guide is numbered against this grid.
Your exam slot is set by the university exam schedule, not by the meeting time of the class. Check it before booking travel, since exams run to December 22.
Dates are taken from the NJIT Fall 2026 academic calendar and are subject to change there.
